9. Given, f (x) =
For x = c < 1,
f (x) = x2 + 1 = c2 + 1
∴ f (x) = f (c)
So f is continuous at x = c < 1.
For x = c > 1,
F (c) = c + 1
f (x) = x + 1 = c + 1
∴ f (x) = f (c)
So, f is continuous at x = c > 1.
For x = c = 1, + (1) = 1 + 1 = 2
L.H.L. = f (x) = x2 + 1 = 12 + 1 = 2.
R.H.L. = f (x) = x + 1 = .1 + 1 = 2
∴ L.H.L = R.H.L. = f (1)
So, f is continuous at x = 1.Hence f has no point of discontinuity.

8. Given, f(x) =
For x = c < 0,
f(c) = 1
f(x) = 1 = 1
∴f(c) = f (x)
f is continuous at x 0.
For x = c > 0,
F (c) = 1
f(x) = = 1.
∴f(c) = f(x)
f is continuous at x > 0.
For x = c 0.
L.H.L. = f(x) = ( 1) = 1
R.H.L. f(x) = 1 = 1
∴ L.H.L. R.H.L.
is now continuous at x = 0, point of discontinuity of f is at x = 0.

7. Given, f(x) =
For x =
f ( 3) = e + 3 (∴x< 3, )
f(x) =
∴ f(x) = f(c)
So, f is continuous at x = c < 3.
For x = c > 3
f(3) = 6.3 + 2 = 18 + 2 = 20
f(x) = 6x + 2 = 18 + 2 = 20
∴ f(x) = f(c).So f is continuous at x = c > 3.
For. C = 3,
f ( 3) = ( 3) + 3 = 6.
f(x) = .x + 3 = ( 3) + 3 = 6.
f(x) = ( 2x) = 2 ( 3) = 6.
∴ f(x) = f(x) = f( 3)
So, f is continuous at x = c = 3.
For c = 3,
f(3) = 6.3 + 2 = 18 + = 20.
f(x) = 2x = 2 (3) = 6
f(x) = (6x + 2) = 6.3 + 2 = 20
∴ f(x)

6. Given f(x) =
For x = c < 2,
F (c) = 2c + 3
f(x) = 2x + 3 = 2c + 3
∴ f (x) = f(c)
So f is continuous at x 2.
For x = c > 2.
F (c) = 2c 3
f(x) = 2x 3 = 2c 3
∴ f(x) = f(c)
So f is continuous at x 2.
For x = c = 2,
L.H.L. = f(x) = .2x + 3 = 2. 2 + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7.
R.H.L. = f(x) = 2x 3 = 2. 2 3 = 4 3 = 1.
∴ LHL RHL
∴ f is not continuous at x = 2.i e, point of discontinuity

5. Given, f (a) =
At x = 0,
(0) = 0
f (x) = x = 0
∴ f (x) = f (0)
So, f is continuous at x = 0.
At x = 1,
Left hand limit,
L.H.L = f (x) = x = 1.
Right hand limit,
R. H. L. = f (x) = 5 = 5.
L.H.L. R.H.L.
So, f is not continuous at x = 1.
At x = 2,
f (2) = 5.
f (x) = 5 = 5
(x) = f (2)
So f is continuous at x = 2.
Find all points of discontinuity of f, where f is defined by

Let x and y be the number of dolls of type A and B, respectively, that are produced in a week.
The given problem can be formulated as given below:
Subject to the constraints,
The feasible region determined by the system of constraints is given below:

A (600, 0), B (1050, 150) and C (800, 400) are the corner points of the feasible region.
The values of z at these corner points are given below:
Corner Point | z = 12x + 16y | |
A (600, 0) | 7200 | |
B (1050, 150) | 15000 | |
C (800, 400) | 16000 | Maximum |
The maximum value of z is 16000 at (800, 400).
Hence, 800 and 400 dolls of type A and type B should be produced, respectively, to get the maximum profit of? 16000.

Let the fruit grower use x bags of brand P and y bags of brand Q, respectively.
The problem can be formulated as given below:
Subject to the constraints,
The feasible region determined by the system of constraints is given below:

A (140, 50), B (20, 140) and C (40, 100) are the corner points of the feasible region.
The values of z at these corner points are given below:
Corner Point | z = 3x + 3.5y | |
A (140, 50) | 595 | Maximum |
B (20, 140) | 550 | |
C (40, 100) | 470 |
The maximum value of z is 595 at (140, 50).
Hence, 140 bags of brand P and 50 bags of brand Q should be used to maximise the amount of nitrogen.
Thus, the maximum amount of nitrogen added to the garden is 595 kg.

Let the fruit grower use x bags of brand P and y bags of brand Q, respectively.
The problem can be formulated as given below:
Subject to the constraints,
The feasible region determined by the system of constraints is given below:

A (240, 0), B (140, 50) and C (20, 140) are the corner points of the feasible region.
The values of z at these corner points are given below:
Corner Point | z = 3x + 3.5y | |
A (140, 50) | 595 | |
B (20, 140) | 550 | |
C (40, 100) | 470 | Minimum |
The maximum value of z is 470 at (40, 100).
Therefore, 40 bags of brand P and 100 bags of brand Q should be added to the garden to minimise the amount of nitrogen.
Hence, the minimum amount of nitrogen added to the garden is 470 kg.

Let x and y litres of oil be supplied from A to the petrol pumps, D and E. So, will be supplied from A to petrol pump F.
The requirement at petrol pump D is 4500 L. Since x L are transported from depot A, the remaining (4500 – x) L will be transported from petrol pump B.
Similarly L will be transported from depot B to petrol pumps E and F, respectively.
The given problem can be represented diagrammatically as given below:

Cost of transporting 10 L of petrol = Rs. 1
Cost of transporting 1 L of petrol = Rs. 1/10
Hence, the total transportation cost is given by,
The problem can be formulated as given below:
