Question
Question: Let \( f(x) = \dfrac{{\sin \\{ x\\} }}{{{x^2} + ax + b}} \) . If \( f\left( {{5^ + }} \right) \) and...
Let f(x)=x2+ax+bsinx . If f(5+) and f(3+) exists finitely and are not zero, then the value of (a+b) is equal to? (where {⋅} represents fractional part function).
Solution
Hint : In this question, we need to determine the value of the term (a+b) such that f(x)=x2+ax+bsinx and f(5+) and f(3+) exists finitely and are not zero. For this, we will follow the general arithmetic equations.
Complete step-by-step answer :
The given function is f(x)=x2+ax+bsinx such that f(5+) and f(3+) exists finitely and are not zero. So, substituting the value of ‘x’ as 5 in the given function, we get
⇒f(x)=x2+ax+bsinx ⇒f(5+)=(5)2+5a+bsin5
As {.} denotes the fractional part, so the above equation can also be written as
⇒f(5+)=(5)2+5a+bsin5 =25+5a+b0
According to the question, f(5+) exists finitely and are not zero, so from the above equation we can write:
25+5a+b=0−−−(i)
Similarly,
Substituting the value of ‘x’ as 3 in the given function, we get
⇒f(x)=x2+ax+bsinx ⇒f(3+)=(3)2+3a+bsin3
As {.} denotes the fractional part, so the above equation can also be written as
⇒f(3+)=(3)2+3a+bsin3 =9+3a+b0
According to the question, f(3+) exists finitely and are not zero, so from the above equation we can write:
9+3a+b=0−−−(ii)
Solving the equations (i) and (ii) for the values of the ‘a’ and ‘b’.
From the equation (i), we can write
25+5a+b=0 b=−25−5a−−−−(iii)
Substituting the value from equation (iii) in the equation (ii), we get
9+3a+b=0 9+3a+(−25−5a)=0 9+3a−25−5a=0 \-2a−16=0 2a=−16 a=−8
Hence, the value of the constant ‘a’ is 8.
Substituting the value of the constant ‘a’ in the equation (iii) to determine the value of the constant ‘b’.
b=−25−5a =−25−5(−8) =−25+40 =15
Hence, the value of the constant ‘b’ is -65.
Now, calculating the sum of the constants:
(a+b)=(15−8) =7
Hence, the sum of and b is 7.
Note : {.} denotes the fractional part and so, for the proper (or exact) integer the fractional part is zero. Therefore, we have taken the fractional part in our solution as zero.
