What is \lim_{x\rightarrow0}\{f(x)g(x)\} equal to?

Consider the following for the two (02) items that follow : Let the function f(x)=\sin[x], where [x] is the greatest integer function and g(x)=|x|.

  1. A. -1
  2. B. 0
  3. C. 1
  4. D. Limit does not exist

Correct Answer: B. 0

Explanation

As x \to 0, g(x) = |x| \to 0. The function f(x) = \sin[x] is bounded since -1 \leq \sin[x] \leq 1. By the Squeeze Theorem, \lim_{x \to 0} f(x)g(x) = 0.
