Show that if $f:mathbb Rto mathbb R$ is such that $-x^2le f(x)le x^2$ for all $xin mathbb R$, then $f$ is differentiable at $x=0$ and $f'(0)=0$.
Really confused because isnt 0 the only soltion. and How would I apply the definition of differentiable to this?

What do you mean "0 is the only solution"? What the inequality says is just that the curve $y=f(x)$ lies between the curves $y=x^2$ and $y=-x^2$, and there are many such functions.

Let $h neq 0$ be small and note that the given inequality implies that $f(0) = 0$ (take $x=0$ in the inequality). Therefore,
beginalign*
fracf(0+h)-f(0)h = fracf(h)h.
endalign*
Since $-x^2 leq f(x) leq x^2$ implies $|f(x)| leq x^2$, it follows that
beginalign*
leftvertfracf(0+h)-f(0)hrightvert = leftvertfracf(h)h rightvert
leq frach^2 = |h| to 0
endalign*
as $h to 0$. By definition of the derivative, we see that $f^prime(0)$ exists and is equal to $0$.

So being greater then -x^2 wont have a effect on the h you output?
