Expert Solution

Step 1

Answer for sub question a:

Suppose $f : ℝ \to ℝ$ is a monotonically increasing function and suppose $\lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f (x + h) - f (x - h)}{2 h} = 0$

Then since $f$ is monotonically increasing it is differentiable almost everywhere and since $\lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f (x + h) - f (x - h)}{2 h} = 0$ it follows that $f$ is differentiable at $x$ .

Now, since $f$ is differentiable at $x$ ,

$f' (x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f (x + h) - f (x)}{h}$

Now,

$\begin{array}{rcl} \frac{f (x + h) - f (x - h)}{2 h} & = & \frac{f (x + h) - f (x) + f (x) - f (x - h)}{2 h} \\ = & \frac{1}{2} (\frac{f (x + h) - f (x)}{h} + \frac{f (x) - f (x - h)}{h}) \end{array}$

Hence,

$\begin{array}{rcl} \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f (x + h) - f (x - h)}{2 h} & = & \frac{1}{2} (\lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f (x + h) - f (x)}{h} + \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f (x) - f (x - h)}{h}) \\ = & \frac{1}{2} (f' (x) + f' (x)) \\ = & f' (x) \end{array}$

Therefore,

$\begin{array}{rcl} f' (x) & = & \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f (x + h) - f (x - h)}{2 h} \\ = & 0 \end{array}$

Hence the claim.
