  • Help me please, - Limit , continuity and differentiability - JEE Main

Let k be a non - zero  real  number. If

  f(x=) \left \{ \right.\frac{(e^{x}-1)^{2}}{\sin\left ( \frac{x}{k} \right )\log \left ( 1+\frac{x}{4} \right )}, x\neq 0

                                        12                  ,x= 0

is a continuous function, then the value of k is :

As we learnt in 

Evaluation of Exponential Limits -

\lim_{x\rightarrow 0}\:\:\:\frac{e^{x}-1}{x}=1

\lim_{x\rightarrow 0}\:\:\:\frac{a^{x}-1}{x}=log_{e}{a}

\lim_{x\rightarrow 0}\:\:\:\frac{e^{Kx}-1}{x}\neq 1

\therefore \:\:\:\lim_{x\rightarrow 0}\:\:\:\frac{e^{Kx}-1}{x}\times \frac{K}{K}

\therefore \:\:\:K\lim_{x\rightarrow 0}\:\:\:\frac{e^{Kx}-1}{Kx}=K\times 1=K

- wherein

\lim_{x\rightarrow 0}\:\:\:\frac{e^{x}-1}{x}

x\:must\:be\:same

 

 f(x)=\left\{\begin{matrix} \frac{(e^{x}-1)^{2}}{sin\left(\frac{x}{k} \right )log\left(1+\frac{x}{4} \right )} \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, x\neq0 \\ 12\, \, \, \, \, \, \,\, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, x=0 \end{matrix}\right.

 

 

\therefore \lim_{x\rightarrow \frac{0^{+}}{0^{-}}}\frac{\left (e^{x}-1 \right )^{2}}{\sin\left ( \frac{x}{k} \right )log(1+\frac{x}{4}) }

\therefore \lim_{x\rightarrow \frac{0^{+}}{0^{-}}}\frac{\frac{\left ( e^{x}-1 \right )^{2}}{x^{2}}}{\frac{sin\left ( \frac{n}{k} \right )log(1+\frac{r}{4})}{\frac{x}{k} \times k\, \, \, \, \, \frac{x} {4}\times 4}}

\lim_{x\to0}\frac{\left(\frac{e^{x}-1}{x} \right )^{2}}{\left(\frac{sin\frac{x}{k}}{\frac{x}{k}} \right )\frac{log\left(1+\frac{x}{4} \right )}{\frac{x}{4}}}\times 4k

\therefore \frac{1\times 4k}{1\times 1}=4k

\therefore 4k=12

\therefore k=3
