Where is f(x) discontinuous but not differentiable Explain?
Wherever a function is differentiable, it must also be continuous. The opposite is not true, however. For example, the absolute value function, f(x) =|x|, is not differentiable at x=0 even though it is continuous everywhere.
Every continuous function is integrible but converse is not true every integrable function is not continuous?
That's true. If a function is continuous, it's (Riemman) integrable, but the converse is not true.
What kind of continuous function can change sign but is never zero?
If the function is continuous in the interval [a,b] where f(a)*f(b) < 0 (f(x) changes sign ) , then there must be a point c in the interval a<c<b such that f(c) = 0 . In other words , continuous function f in the interval [a,b] receives all all values between f(a) and f(b)
What is function which is has irremovable discontinuity at x-2 removable discontinuity at x2 and continuous at other points?
"Removable discontinuity" means the function is not defined at that point (it has a "hole"), but by changing the function definition at that single point, defining it to be certain value, it becomes continuous. "Irremovable discontinuity" means the function makes a sudden jump at that point. There are infinitely many functions like that; for example, you can set the function to be: f(x) is undefined at x = -2 f(x) = 0 for x < 2 (except for x = -2) f(x) = 1 for x > 2
How do I show that a given function f is continuous everywhere?
Υou show that it is continuous in every element of it's domain.
When finding the derivative of a point on a piecewise function does every function in the piecewise function need to be continuous and approach the same limit?
All differentiable functions need be continuous at least.
How is the function differentiable in graph?
If the graph of the function is a continuous line then the function is differentiable. Also if the graph suddenly make a deviation at any point then the function is not differentiable at that point . The slope of a tangent at any point of the graph gives the derivative of the function at that point.
Is a cosine function continuous?
Yes. The cosine function is continuous. The sine function is also continuous. The tangent function, however, is not continuous.
If f is continuous for all x and y and has two relative minima then f must have at least one relative maximum?
Yes.If you find 2 relative minima and the function is continuous, there must be exactly one point between these minima with the highest value in that interval. This point is a relative maxima.Think of temperature for example (it is continuous).
Does the cosine function appear to be continuous?
yes it is a continuous function.
Where is f(x) discontinuous but not differentiable Explain?
Wherever a function is differentiable, it must also be continuous. The opposite is not true, however. For example, the absolute value function, f(x) =|x|, is not differentiable at x=0 even though it is continuous everywhere.
Which is a possible turning point for the continuous function f(x) (3 4) (2 1) (0 5) (1 8)?
Four discrete points do not define a continuous function.
A polynomial function is always continuous?
Yes, a polynomial function is always continuous
Every continuous function is integrible but converse is not true every integrable function is not continuous?
That's true. If a function is continuous, it's (Riemman) integrable, but the converse is not true.
How do you sketch a piece wise continuous function?
A piece-wise continuous function is one which has a domain that is broken up inot sub-domains. Over each sub-domain the function is continuous but at the end of the domain one of the following possibilities can occur:the domain itself is discontinuous (disjoint domains),the value of the function is not defined at the start or end-point of the domain ((a hole),the value of the function at the end point of a sub-domain is different to its value at the start of the next sub-domain (a step-discontinuity).A piece-wise continuous function is one which has a domain that is broken up inot sub-domains.

What function is continuous everywhere but not differentiable?
Weistrass function is continuous everywhere but not differentiable everywhere
Can a function have a limit at every x-value in its domain?
Yes, that happens with any continuous function. The limit is equal to the function value in this case.Yes, that happens with any continuous function.
