Question Number 73566 by Rio Michael last updated on 13/Nov/19

show that f(x) = ∣x∣ is not differentiable at x=0, where ∣x∣  denotes he absolute value function

$${show}\:{that}\:{f}\left({x}\right)\:=\:\mid{x}\mid\:{is}\:{not}\:{differentiable}\:{at}\:{x}=\mathrm{0},\:{where}\:\mid{x}\mid \\ $$$${denotes}\:{he}\:{absolute}\:{value}\:{function} \\ $$

thanks sir,  but when looking at differentiability  should we take   derivatives at x = 0 from both direction?

f′_− (0)=−1  f′_+ (0)=1

$${f}'_{−} \left(\mathrm{0}\right)=−\mathrm{1} \\ $$$${f}'_{+} \left(\mathrm{0}\right)=\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$ \\ $$
