Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. [x][x] jumps by 1 at every integer and is continuous elsewhere.

  2. The integers strictly between −2-2 and 3 are −1,0,1,2-1, 0, 1, 2: 4 points.

Worth noting

6 counts −2-2 and 3 too, which the open interval leaves out.
