Choose the correct answer:
- A.
x∈(−∞,∞)
(Correct Answer) - B.
x∈(−∞,∞)−{0}
- C.
only x > 0
- D.
No value of x
x∈(−∞,∞)
Explanation
Concept:
If f(x)=f1(x)+f2(x) and
f1(x) and f2(x) are continuous function then f(x) is continuous function.
Calculations:
Given function is f(x)=x+∣x∣
⇒f(x)=f1(x)+f2(x) where f1(x)=x and f2(x)=∣x∣
Here, f1(x)=x is continuous function at x∈(−∞,∞)
f2(x)=∣x∣ is continuous function at x∈(−∞,∞)
⇒f(x) is continuous function at x∈(−∞,∞)
Hence, f(x)=x+∣x∣ is continuous for x∈(−∞,∞)
