f(x)=[4x](x−41)2(x−21),x∈(0,1)
[x]=greatest integer ≤x
check (1)–(4): continuity, differentiability, minf
1. [4x] on each interval
2. continuity+differentiability at 41,21,43
3. minimum value of f
x∈(0,41): f=0;x∈[41,21): f=g
x∈[21,43): f=2g;x∈[43,1): f=3g
g(x)=(x−41)2(x−21)
limx→1/4f(x)=0=f(41),limx→1/2f(x)=0=f(21)
⇒continuous at 41, 21
g(43)=(21)2(41)=161
x→43−: f→2⋅161=81;x→43+: f→3⋅161=163
81=163⇒(1) TRUE
g′(x)=3x2−2x+165
f′(41−)=0,f′(41+)=g′(41)=0
⇒differentiable at 41
f′(21−)=g′(21)=161;f′(21+)=2g′(21)=81
161=81⇒(2) TRUE; only 2 non-diff. points⇒(3) FALSE
g′(x)=0⇒x=41 or 125
g(125)=(61)2(−121)=−4321
minf=−4321=−5121⇒(4) FALSE
