Let (f(x)= (e^x-1 )^2 ( x a ) (1+ x 4 ) ) for (x 0 ), and (f(0)=12 ). If ( f ) is continuous at (x=0 ), then the value of (a ) is equal to
Options
- A1
- B-1
- C2
- D3
Correct answer
D. 3
Step-by-step solution
( aligned & Lt _ x 0 (e^x-1 )^2 ( x a ) (1+ x 4 ) &= Lt _ x 0 (e^x-1 )^2 x x^2 x a ( x a ) ( x a ) (1+ x 4 ) x 4 x 4 4 a=12 & a=3 aligned )
