Let $f:(0,1) \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be the function defined as $f(x)=[4x](x-\frac{1}{4})^2(x-\frac{1}{2})$,where $[x]$ denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to $x$. Then which of the following statements is(are) true?
$(A)$ The function $f$ is discontinuous exactly at one point in $(0,1)$
$(B)$ There is exactly one point in $(0,1)$ at which the function $f$ is continuous but $NOT$ differentiable
$(C)$ The function $f$ is $NOT$ differentiable at more than three points in $(0,1)$
$(D)$ The minimum value of the function $f$ is $-\frac{1}{512}$

The value that should be assigned to $f(0)$ so that the function $f(x)=(x+1)^{\cot x}$ is continuous at $x=0$, is

Examine the following function for continuity: $f(x) = \frac{1}{x-5}, x \neq 5$.

If $f(x) = x^3 + 7x - 1$,then $f(x)$ has a zero between $x = 0$ and $x = 1$. The theorem which best describes this is:

If $f(x) = \begin{cases} \frac{a|x|+x^2-2(\sin |x|)(\cos |x|)}{x} & , x \neq 0 \\ b & , x=0 \end{cases}$ is continuous at $x=0$, then $a+b$ is equal to:
