Let f(x) be a differentiable function satisfying f(y)-f(x)= x^x y^y f ( y^y x^x ) for all x, y R⁺ . If f^ (1)=1 , then find the value of |f(e) f ( 1 e ) | .
Correct answer
1
Step-by-step solution
[f(y)-f(x)] y^y=x^x f ( y^y x^x ) Differentiate w.r.t. x keeping y constant. -f^ (x) y^y=x^x f ( y^y x^x )(1+ x)-x^x f^ ( y^y x^x ) y^y(1+ x) x^x Given f^ (1)=1 Put y^y=x^x -f^ (x) x^x=x^x f(1)(1+ x)-x^x f^ (1)(1+ x) Now, f(1)=0 Hence, f^ (x)=1+ x Integrate aligned & f(x)=C+x x & f(1)=0 C=0 & f(x)=x x aligned So, f(e)=e and f(1 / e)=-1 / e . So the answer is 1 .
