Question:

Exhaustive set of points where f(x) = x|x| is differentiable, is

Options:

(−∞, ∞) ∼ {0}

(−∞, ∞) ∼ {0}

(−∞, ∞) ∼ [−1]

(−∞, ∞)

Correct Answer:

(−∞, ∞)

Explanation:

$f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{c}x^2, &x \geq 0 \\ -x^2, &x<0\end{array}\right.$

Graph of f(x) indicates that f(x) is differentiable for (–∞, ∞)
