Q.

Let f:R→R be defined as f(x)={a-bcos2xx2;x<0x2+cx+2;0≤x≤12x+1;x>1

If f is continuous everywhere in R and m is the number of points where f is NOT differential, then m+a+b+c equals              [2024]

1 3  
2 1  
3 4  
4 2  

Ans.

(4)

Given, f(x) is continuous everywhere

f(0-)=f(0)⇒2b=2⇒b=1

f(1)=f(1+)⇒3+c=3⇒c=0

Since, f(0-)=2

=limh→0a-bcos2hh2=limh→0a-b{1-4h22!+16h44!-…}h2

=limh→0(a-b)+b{2h2-23h4…}h2

=for limit to exist a-b=0 and limit is 2b         ∴  a=b=1

Now, Lf'(0)=limx→01-cos2hh2-2-h

=limx→01-(1-4h22!+16h24!…)-2h2-h3=0

Also, Rf'(0)=limx→0(0+h)2+2-2h=0

∴    m=0

∴    m+a+b+c=0+1+1+0=2
