# 34. Find all the points of discontinuity of f defined by

Given function is

Let g(x) = |x|  and h(x)  = |x+1|
Now,

g(x) is defined for all real numbers k
case(i)  k < 0

Hence, g(x) is continuous when k < 0

case (ii) k > 0

Hence, g(x) is continuous when k > 0

case (iii) k = 0

Hence, g(x) is continuous when k = 0
Therefore, g(x) = |x| is continuous for all real values of x

Now,

g(x) is defined for all real numbers k
case(i)  k < -1

Hence, h(x) is continuous when k < -1

case (ii) k > -1

Hence, h(x) is continuous when k > -1

case (iii) k = -1

Hence, h(x) is continuous when k = -1
Therefore, h(x) = |x+1| is continuous for all real values of x
g(x) is continuous and h(x) is continuous
Therefore, f(x) = g(x) - h(x) = |x| - |x+1| is also continuous
