Let f(x+y)=f(x) f(y) for all x, y where f(0) 0 If f(5)=2 and f^ (0)=3, then f^ (5) is equal to-
Options
- A6
- B0
- C1
- DNone of these
Correct answer
A. 6
Step-by-step solution
f^ (5)= _ h 0 f(5+h)-f(5) h = _ h 0 f(5+h)-f(5+0) h = _ h 0 f(5) f(h)-f(5)+f(0) h ( f(x+y)=f(x), f(y) for all x, y)= ( _ h 0 f(h)-f(0) h ) f(5)=f^ (0) f(5)=3 2=6
