If f(x)= 25-x^2 , then what is Lim_ x arrow 1 (f(x)-f(1))/(x-1)...

If f(x)=25−x2f(x)=\sqrt{25-x^2}, then what is Lim⁡x→1f(x)−f(1)x−1\operatorname{Lim}_{x \rightarrow 1} \frac{f(x)-f(1)}{x-1} equal to ?

Options

  1. A1/5
  2. B1/24
  3. C24\sqrt{24}
  4. D−124-\frac{1}{\sqrt{24}}

Correct answer

D. −124-\frac{1}{\sqrt{24}}

Step-by-step solution

f(x)=25−x2f(1)=24⇒lim⁡x→1f(x)−f(1)x−1\begin{aligned} & f(x)=\sqrt{25-x^2} \\ & f(1)=\sqrt{24} \\ & \Rightarrow \quad \lim _{x \rightarrow 1} \frac{f(x)-f(1)}{x-1} \end{aligned}\thereforeItisIt is\frac{0}{0}(undefinedcondition)sousingL′hospital′srule(undefined condition) so using L'hospital's rule\Rightarrow \lim _{x \rightarrow 1} \frac{\mathrmf^{\prime}(\mathrm{x})-0}{1}=\lim _{\mathrm{x} \rightarrow 1}\left(\sqrt{25-\mathrm{x}^2}\right)^{\prime}\Rightarrow \lim _{x \rightarrow 1} \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{25-x^2}}(-2 x)=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{25-(1)^2}} \times(-2)=-\frac{1}{\sqrt{24}}$
