Consider the following statements in respect of the given function: \(f(x) = \begin{cases} \dfrac{x^3}{|x|}, & x \neq 0 \\ 0, & x = 0 \end{cases}\) I. \(f(x)\) is continuous everywhere. II. \(f(x)\) is differentiable everywhere. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Both I and II
For \(x > 0\), \(f(x) = x^3/x = x^2\) and for \(x < 0\), \(f(x) = x^3/(-x) = -x^2\), i.e. \(f(x) = x|x|\) everywhere including \(x = 0\). This function is continuous everywhere since both pieces tend to \(0\) as \(x \to 0\). Its derivative works out to \(f'(x) = 2|x|\), which also exists at \(x = 0\), so \(f\) is differentiable everywhere too. Hence both statements I and II are correct.
