Options:
  • A $f(x)=|x|$ in $-2 \leq x \leq 2$
  • B $\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=\tan \mathrm{x}$ in $0 \leq \mathrm{x} \leq \pi$
  • C $\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=1+(\mathrm{x}-2)^{\frac{2}{3}}$ in $1 \leq \mathrm{x} \leq 3$
  • D $\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=\mathrm{x}(\mathrm{x}-2)^2$ in $0 \leq \mathrm{x} \leq 2$

The correct answer is: $\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=\mathrm{x}(\mathrm{x}-2)^2$ in $0 \leq \mathrm{x} \leq 2$
Hints: $(\mathrm{A}) \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=|\mathrm{x}|$ not differentiable at $\mathrm{x}=0$
