MathematicsContinuity and DifferentiabilityJEE Advanced 2014

Let f : ℝ → ℝ and g : ℝ → ℝ be respectively given by f(x) = |x| + 1 and . Define h : ℝ → ℝ by

h(x) =

The number of points at which h(x) is not differentiable is

Answer: 3

Solution

f and g meet where : x = −1, 0, 1. For x ≤ −1, , so ; for −1 ≤ x ≤ 0, ; for 0 < x ≤ 1, , so ; for x ≥ 1, h = x + 1.
