The value of _ x 0 e^ a x -e^ b x 2 x is equal to
Options
- A0
- Be^ a b 2
- Ca+b 2
- Da-b 2
Correct answer
D. a-b 2
Step-by-step solution
The limit is given by L = _ x 0 e^ ax - e^ bx 2x . Since the limit is of the form 0 0 as x 0 , L'Hopital's rule can be applied by differentiating the numerator and the denominator with respect to x . L = _ x 0 d dx (e^ ax - e^ bx ) d dx (2x) L = _ x 0 ae^ ax - be^ bx 2 Substituting x = 0 into the expression: L = ae⁰ - be⁰ 2 = a - b 2 Answer: a-b 2
