Correct answer
A. 2
Step-by-step solution
Since f(x) is continuous at x = 1 , f(1) = _ x 1 f(x) . f(1) = _ x 1 1 + ( x) (1-x)^2 This is a 0 0 form. Applying L'Hospital's rule: f(1) = _ x 1 - ( x) -2 (1-x) f(1) = _ x 1 ( x) 2(1-x) This is again a 0 0 form. Applying L'Hospital's rule once more: f(1) = _ x 1 ( x) -2 Substituting x = 1 : f(1) = ( ) -2 = (-1) -2 = 2 Answer: 2
