Let f and g be twice differentiable even functions on (-2, 2) such that $f (\frac{1}{4}) = 0, f (\frac{1}{2}) = 0, f (1) = 1$ and $f (\frac{3}{4}) = 0, g (1) = 2$

Then, the minimum number of solutions of $f (x) g " (x) + f' (x) g' (x) = 0 i n (- 2, 2)$ is equal to……….

Vishal Baghel

f (x) is an even function

$f (- \frac{1}{4}) = f (- \frac{1}{2}) = f (\frac{1}{2}) = f (\frac{1}{4}) = 0$

So, f (x) has at least four roots in (-2, 2)

$g (\frac{- 3}{4}) = g (\frac{3}{4}) = 0$

So, g (x) has at least two roots in (-2, 2)

now number of roots of f (x) $\cdot g " (x) = f' (x) \cdot g' (x) = 0$

It is same as number of roots of $\frac{d}{d x} (f (x) \cdot g' (x)) = 0$ will have atleast 4 roots in (-2, 2)

Let f be a real valued continuous function on [0, 1] and f(x) = $x + \int_{0}^{1} (x - t) f (t) d t .$ Then, which of the following points (x, y) lies on the curve y = f(x)?

Vishal Baghel

$f (x) = x + x \int_{0}^{1} f (t) d t - \int_{0}^{1} t_{0} f (t) d t$

Let $1 + \int_{0}^{1} f (t) d t = α$

$\int_{0}^{1} t f (t) d t = β$

So, f(x) = x

Now, $α = \int_{0}^{1} f (t) d t + 1$

$α = \int_{0}^{1} (a t - β) d t + 1$

$β = \int_{0}^{1} t \cdot f (t) d t$

$β = \frac{4}{13}, α = \frac{18}{13}$

f(x) = αx – b

$= \frac{18 x - 4}{13}$

Let f(x) be non-constant thrice differentiable function defined on $(- \infty, \infty)$ such that f(x) = f(6 – x) and f’(0) = 0 = f’(2) = f’(5). If ‘n’ is the minimum number of roots of (f”(x))² + f(x)f”(x) = 0 in the interval x $\in$ [0, 6] then sum of digits of n equals

Vishal Baghel

f (x) = f (6 – x) Þ f' (x) = -f' (6 – x) …. (1)

put x = 0, 2, 5

f' (0) = f' (6) = f' (2) = f' (4) = f' (5) = f' (1) = 0

and from equation (1) we get f' (3) = -f' (3)

$? f' (3) = 0$

So f' (x) = 0 has minimum 7 roots in $x ? [0, 6] ? f'' (x)$ has min 6 roots in $x ? [0, 6]$

h (x) = f' (x) . f' (x)

h' (x) = (f' (x)² + f' (x) f' (x)

1 + x? - x? = a? (1+x)? + a? (1+x) + a? (1+x)² . + a? (1+x)?
Differentiate
4x³ - 5x? = a? + 2a? (1+x) + 3a? (1+x)².
12x² - 20x³ = 2a? + 6a? (1+x).
Put x = -1
12 + 20 = 2a? ⇒ a? = 16

Let f : R → R satisfy the equation f(x+y) = f(x).f(y) for all x,y ∈ R and f(x) ≠ 0 for any x ∈ R. If the function f is differentiable at x = 0 and f'(0) = 3, then limₕ→₀ (1/h)(f(h)-1) is equal to......

The functional equation f (x+y) = f (x)f (y) implies f (x) = a? for some constant a.
Then f' (x) = a? ln (a).
Given f' (0) = 3, we have a? ln (a) = 3 ⇒ ln (a) = 3 ⇒ a = e³.
So, f (x) = e³?
We need to evaluate the limit: lim (x→0) (f (x)-1)/x = lim (x→0) (e³? -1)/x.
Using the standard limit lim (u→0) (e?
