Q.

Let α,β be such that the function f(x)={2α(x2-2)+2βx,x<1(α+3)x+(α-β),x1

be differentiable at all x. Then 34(α+β) is equal to                       [2026]

1 84  
2 24  
3 36   
4 48  

Ans.

(4)

f(x)={2αx2+2βx-4α,x<1(α+3)x+α-β,x1

f(1+)=2α-β+3,  f(1-)=-2α+2β

2α-β+3=2β-2α4α-3β+3=0  ...(1)

f'(1+)=4α+2β,  f'(1-)=α+3

4α+2β=α+33α+2β-3=0  ...(2)

Solving (1) & (2)

We get  α=317,  β=2117

34(α+β)=34×2717=48
