Detailed Solution
We have x2−3x+2=x−1+x−2 =1−x2−x, if x≤1x−12−x, if 12This function is differentiable at all points except possible at x=1 and x=2. Lf(1) =limx→1−f(x)−f(1)x−1 =limx→1−x2−1x−2+cosx−cos1x−1 = 0−1sin1=−sin1.and Rf(1) = limx→1+f(x)−f(1)x−1 =limx→1+−x2−1x−2+cosx−cos1x−1 = 0−sin1=−sin1∴ f is differentiable at x=1. Lf(2)=limx→2−f(x)−f(2)x−2 = limx→2−−x2−1x−1+cosx−cos2x−2 = −4−12−1−sin2=−3−sin2 Rf(2)= limx→2+f(x)−f(2)x−2 = limx→2+x2−1x−1+cosx−cos2x−2 = 22−12−1−sin2=3−sin2As Lf(2)≠Rf(2), f is not differentiable at x=2.Hence (4) is the correct answer.
