Correct answer: A, B
We need to check differentiability of at the points mentioned in the options.
1. Basic observations
We analyze the potentially problematic parts:
- can cause non-differentiability at .
- can cause non-differentiability where , i.e.
- since .
So Hence
We now test each option.
2. Option A: differentiable at if
If , then
To test differentiability at , compute Then
Use as : So
More rigorously, since ,
Thus derivative exists and equals .
So Option A is correct.
3. Option B: differentiable at if
If , then Let At , , so
Now examine differentiability:
Use the standard expansion near : Also near , so Hence Therefore
So derivative exists at .
Thus Option B is correct.
4. Option C: NOT differentiable at if
If , then again At , Now
Near ,
And so
Hence
Thus is differentiable at .
So the statement “NOT differentiable” is false.
Therefore Option C is incorrect.
5. Option D: NOT differentiable at if
If , then We already know the first term is differentiable at . Now check the second term near .
Since is near , we have . Also for near because there. Thus near the second term becomes which is a composition/product of differentiable functions, hence differentiable at .
Therefore the sum is differentiable at . So the statement “NOT differentiable” is false.
Hence Option D is incorrect.
6. Final conclusion
The correct options are:
This matches the stored correct answer.
