Mathematics Question on Continuity and differentiability

The number of discontinuity of the greatest integer function f(x)=[x],x(72,100)f\left(x\right)=\left[x\right], \, x\in \left(- \frac{7}{2} , \, 100\right) is equal to

A

104

B

102

C

101

D

103

Answer

103

Explanation

Solution

Given, f(x)=[x],x(3.5,100)f\left(x\right)=\left[x\right], \, x\in \left(- 3.5 , \, 100\right) As we know greatest integer is discontinuous on integer values. In given interval, the integer values are (3,2,1,0,,99)\left(\right.-3, \, -2, \, -1, \, 0, \, \ldots , \, 99\left.\right) \therefore Total numbers of integers are 103.
