If a function y = f(x) is defined as $y=\frac{1}{t^2-t-6}$ and $t=\frac{1}{x-2}, t \in R$. Then, f(x) is discontinuous at |
$2, \frac{2}{3}, \frac{7}{3}$ $2, \frac{3}{2}, \frac{7}{3}$ $2, \frac{2}{3}, \frac{3}{7}$ none of these |
$2, \frac{3}{2}, \frac{7}{3}$ |
We have, $y=\frac{1}{t^2-t-6}=\frac{1}{(t-3)(t+2)}$ and, $t=\frac{1}{x-2}$ We observe that t is not defined at x = 2 and y is not defined at t = -2, 3. Now, $t=-2 \Rightarrow-2=\frac{1}{x-2} \Rightarrow x=\frac{3}{2}$ and, $t=3 \Rightarrow 3=\frac{1}{x-2} \Rightarrow x=\frac{7}{3}$ Hence, f(x) is discontinuous at $x=2, \frac{3}{2}$ and $\frac{7}{3}$. |
