MediumOriginal question

At how many points is f(x)=∣x2−1∣f(x) = \lvert x^{2} - 1 \rvert not differentiable?

Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. x2−1=0x^{2} - 1 = 0 at x=±1x = \pm 1, where it changes sign.

  2. Each gives a corner: 2 points.

Worth noting

1 counts only x=1x = 1; x=−1x = -1 is a root too.
