Q.

If f(x)=x2+g'(1)x+g''(2) and g(x)=f(1)x2+xf'(x)+f''(x), then the value of f(4)-g(4) is equal to          [2023]


Ans.

(14)

Let g'(1)=A

g''(2)=B,  f(x)=x2+Ax+B,  f(1)=A+B+1

f'(x)=2x+A, f''(x)=2,

g(x)=(A+B+1)x2+x(2x+A)+2

g(x)=x2(A+B+3)+Ax+2

g'(x)=2x(A+B+3)+A,  g'(1)=A

2(A+B+3)+A=A

A+B=-3  ...(i)

g''(x)=2(A+B+3),  g''(2)=B

2(A+B+3)=B

2A+B=-6  ...(ii)

From (i) and (ii): A=-3, B=0

f(x)=x2-3x,  f(4)=16-12=4

g(x)-3x+2,  g(4)=-12+2=-10

f(4)-g(4)=4-(-10)=14
