Given that _ x arrow ∞ ((2+x^2)/(1+x)-A x-B)=3 . What is the value...

Given that lim⁡x→∞(2+x21+x−Ax−B)=3\lim _{x \rightarrow \infty}\left(\frac{2+x^2}{1+x}-A x-B\right)=3. What is the value of B?

Options

  1. A–1
  2. B3
  3. C–4
  4. D–3

Correct answer

C. –4

Step-by-step solution

lim⁡x→∞(2+x21+x−Ax−B)=3⇒lim⁡x→∞(2+x2−Ax−B−Ax2−Bx1+x)=3⇒lim⁡x→∞[(1−A)x2−(A+B)x+2−B1+x]=3\begin{aligned} & \lim _{\mathrm{x} \rightarrow \infty}\left(\frac{2+\mathrm{x}^2}{1+\mathrm{x}}-\mathrm{Ax}-\mathrm{B}\right)=3 \\ \Rightarrow & \lim _{\mathrm{x} \rightarrow \infty}\left(\frac{2+\mathrm{x}^2-\mathrm{Ax}-\mathrm{B}-\mathrm{Ax}^2-\mathrm{Bx}}{1+\mathrm{x}}\right)=3 \\ \Rightarrow & \lim _{\mathrm{x} \rightarrow \infty}\left[\frac{(1-\mathrm{A}) \mathrm{x}^2-(\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B}) \mathrm{x}+2-\mathrm{B}}{1+\mathrm{x}}\right]=3 \end{aligned} Applying L'Hospital rule, 2x(1−A)−(A+B)=32 x(1-A)-(A+B)=3 Comparing coefficients 2(1−A)=0∴A=1 and −(A+B)=3∴B=−3−1=−4A+B=−3A=1.B=−4\begin{array}{ll} & 2(1-A)=0 \\ \therefore \quad & A=1 \text{ and } \\ & -(A+B)=3 \\ \therefore \quad & B=-3-1=-4 \\ & A+B=-3 \\ & A=1 . B=-4 \end{array}
