Let f be a differentiable function in the interval (0, ∞) such that f(1) =1 and limt→xt2f(x)–x2f(t)t–x=1 for each x > 0. Then 2f(2) + 3f(3) is equal to __________. [2024]
(24)
We Have ltt→xt2f(x)–x2f(t)t–x=1 (00 form)
⇒ ltt→x2tf(x)–x2f'(t)1=1 [L'Hospital Rule]
⇒ 2xf(x)–x2f'(x)=1 ⇒ f'(x)–2xf(x)=–1x2
IF=e∫–2xdx=e–2 ln x=1x2
∴ f(x)1x2=∫–1x2·1x2dx+C ⇒ f(x)1x2=13x3+C
Now, f(1) = 1
⇒ 23=C ⇒ f(x)=13x+2x23
Now, 2f(2)+3f(3)=2[16+83]+3[19+183]
=13+163+13+18=6+18=24.
