The number of solutions, of the equation e sin x − 2 e − sin x = 2 is
Options
- A2
- Bmore than 2
- C1
- D0
Correct answer
D. 0
Step-by-step solution
Let, e sin x = t ⇒ t - 2 t = 2 ⇒ t 2 - 2 t - 2 = 0 ⇒ t 2 - 2 t + 1 = 3 ⇒ t - 1 2 = 3 ⇒ t = 1 ± 3 ⇒ t ≈ 2 . 73 , - 0 . 73 not possible ⇒ t ≈ 2 . 73 ⇒ e sin x ≈ 2 . 73 ⇒ sin x ≈ log e 2 . 73 ⇒ sin x > 1 → Not possible So no solutions will be possible for the given equation.
