Consider the function f(x)=\ array cc -2 x & if x ≤-(π)/(2) A x+B &...
Consider the function
f(x)=\left\{\right.
which is continuous everywhere.
The value of A is
Options
- A1
- B0
- C-1
- D-2
Correct answer
C. -1
Step-by-step solution
\because f(x)=\left\{\right.Also; $\lim _{x \rightarrow-\pi / 2^{+}} f(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow-\pi / 2^{-}} f(x)\begin{aligned}
& \Rightarrow \lim _{x \rightarrow-\pi / 2} \mathrm{ A} \sin \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{B}=\lim _{\mathrm{x} \rightarrow-\pi / 2}-2 \sin \mathrm{x} \\
& \Rightarrow-\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B}=2
\end{aligned}$$$
is from eq(1) \& (2) we get,
A=-1
