If $f(x)= \begin{cases}\frac{\sin (1+[x])}{[x]}, & \text { for }[x] \neq 0 \\ 0, & \text { for }[x]=0\end{cases}$ where $[x]$ denotes the greatest integer not exceeding $x$, then $\lim _{x \rightarrow 0^{-}} f(x)$ is equal to
  1. $-1$
  2. $0$
  3. $1$
  4. $2$

Solution

Given, $\begin{aligned} f(x) & = \begin{cases}\frac{\sin (1+[x])}{[x]}, & \text { for }[x] \neq 0 \\ 0 \quad & \text { for }[x]=0\end{cases} \\ \lim _{x \rightarrow 0^{-}} f(x) & =\lim _{x \rightarrow 0^{-}} \frac{\sin (1+[x])}{[x]} \\ & =\frac{\sin (1-1)}{-1} \\ & =0\end{aligned}$
