Mathematics Question on Functions

Let f(x)={x+11x0 x0<x1}\begin{Bmatrix} x+1&\,\,\,-1\leq x\leq 0\\\ -x&\,\,\,\,\,0<x\leq1 \end{Bmatrix}

A

f(x) is discontinuous in [-1,1] and so has no maximum value or minimum value in [-1,1].

B

f(x) is continuous in [-1,1] and so has maximum and minimum value

C

f(x) is discontinuous in [-1,1] but still has the maximum and minimum value

D

f(x) is bounded in[-1,1] and doesn't attain maximum or minimum value

Answer

f(x) is bounded in[-1,1] and doesn't attain maximum or minimum value

Explanation

Solution

The function f(x) is bounded within the interval [-1, 1], and it does not attain a maximum or minimum value within this interval.

The correct option is(D): f(x) is bounded in[-1,1] and doesn't attain maximum or minimum value
