Let $R$ denote the set of all real numbers. Define the function $f: R \rightarrow R$ by $f(x) = \begin{cases} 2-2x^2-x^2 \sin \frac{1}{x} & \text{if } x \neq 0 \\ 2 & \text{if } x=0 \end{cases}$. Then which one of the following statements is True?

  • A
    The function $f$ is not differentiable at $x=0$
  • B
    There is a positive real number $\delta$,such that $f$ is a decreasing function on the interval $(0, \delta)$
  • C
    For any positive real number $\delta$,the function $f$ is not an increasing function on the interval $(-\delta, 0)$
  • D
    $x=0$ is a point of local minima of $f$
