Correct answer: B
-
Given function
where is the least integer greater than or equal to .
-
Find the domain
Since the square root is in the denominator, we need
because:
- inside the square root must be positive,
- it cannot be since it is in the denominator.
Now for any real :
- if ? More generally, if , then , so and is not defined.
- if , then , hence
Therefore the function is defined for all non-integers and undefined at integers.
Hence
-
Find the range
Let
For , we have
Then
Since :
- as , ,
- as , .
Also every value is achievable. For example, if with and , then
\quad \lceil x\rceil-x=1-\alpha,$$ which can be any number in $(0,1)$. So the range is $$B=(1,\infty).$$

Check statement (S1)
We need
This is simply all real numbers greater than that are not integers:
Since integers greater than are precisely natural numbers from , this is commonly written as
So (S1) is true.
-
Check statement (S2)
We need
Now:
- all non-integers are already in ,
- integers greater than are included through ,
- but integers are not in and not in .
Thus
This is not equal to , because many numbers less than or equal to but non-integral (for example , ) belong to .
Hence (S2) is false.
-
Conclusion
- (S1) is true
- (S2) is false
Therefore the correct option is
i.e. only (S1) is true.
