Standard indeterminacy layout resolution rules for limits matching form 1^∞:

t → 0 [g(t)](1)/(t) = e^ t → 0 (g(t) - 1)/(t)
Core Logic

Evaluate structural integration base at boundary limit initialization state t → 0:

∫₀¹ 1 dx = 1

This confirms it matches an indeterminate form of type 1^∞.

Step 1: Apply Taylor Series or L'Hopital's Theorem

Compute limits of logarithmic integration properties inside exponential power indices:

Exponent Expression = t → 0 ∫₀¹ (3x+5)^t dx - 1t

Applying L'Hopital's theorem to differentiate the numerator with respect to t yields:

∫₀¹ (3x+5)^t ln(3x+5) dx

Evaluating this at t = 0 gives:

∫₀¹ ln(3x+5) dx
Step 2: Complete the Final Form Match

Integrating via parts results in logarithmic value updates:

[ ((3x+5)ln(3x+5) - (3x+5))/(3) ]₀¹ = (8ln 8 - 5ln 5 - 3)/(3)

Passing components back through exponential foundations transforms terms to:

e(8ln 8 - 5ln 5 - 3)/(3) = ((8)/(5))(2)/(3) · ((64)/(5e))

Comparing with the target expression (α)/(5e)((8)/(5))(2)/(3) isolates the numerical solution directly: α = 64

Pattern Recognition

Treating 1^∞ structural transformations using logarithmic derivatives allows managing complex functions containing multiple integral boundaries effectively.

Continuity at x=c: x → c^- f(x) = x → c^+ f(x) Differentiability at x=c: x → c^- f'(x) = x → c^+ f'(x)
Core Logic

Rewrite the piecewise function without absolute values:

f(x) = cases (1)/(x) & , x ≥ 2 ax² + 2b & , -2 < x < 2 -(1)/(x) & , x ≤ -2 cases
Step 1: Applying Continuity

For f(x) to be continuous at x = 2:

x → 2^- (ax² + 2b) = x → 2^+ (1)/(x) a(2)² + 2b = (1)/(2) ⇒ 4a + 2b = (1)/(2) (1)

Because the function is even, continuity at x = -2 yields the exact same equation: 4a + 2b = 1/2.

Step 2: Applying Differentiability

Find the derivative f'(x) for piecewise sections:

f'(x) = cases -(1)/(x²) & , x > 2 2ax & , -2 < x < 2 (1)/(x²) & , x < -2 cases

For f(x) to be differentiable at x = 2:

x → 2^- (2ax) = x → 2^+ (-(1)/(x²)) 4a = -(1)/(4) ⇒ a = -(1)/(16)
Step 3: Finding variables and final target

Substitute a back into equation (1):

4(-(1)/(16)) + 2b = (1)/(2) -(1)/(4) + 2b = (1)/(2) ⇒ 2b = (3)/(4) ⇒ b = (3)/(8)

We need to evaluate 48(a + b):

48(-(1)/(16) + (3)/(8)) = 48((-1 + 6)/(16)) = 48((5)/(16)) = 3 × 5 = 15
Pattern Recognition

Piecewise differentiability forces simultaneous linear equations matching function values and their first derivatives at boundary limits.

Sandwich / Squeeze Theorem: If g(x) ≤ h(x) ≤ k(x) and g(x) = k(x) = L, then h(x) = L
Core Logic

Since f is a strictly increasing function mapping to (0,∞): For x > 0, we have x < 5x < 7x. Thus, f(x) < f(5x) < f(7x). Divide everything by f(x) (which is strictly positive):

1 < (f(5x))/(f(x)) < (f(7x))/(f(x))

Take the limit as x → ∞:

x→∞ 1 ≤ x→∞ (f(5x))/(f(x)) ≤ x→∞ (f(7x))/(f(x)) 1 ≤ x→∞ (f(5x))/(f(x)) ≤ 1

Therefore, x→∞ (f(5x))/(f(x)) = 1. The required value is:

x arrow ∞ [ (f(5x))/(f(x)) - 1 ] = 1 - 1 = 0

The function is f(x) = e-|ln x|. Rewrite piecewise for (0, ∞):

f(x) = cases e-(-ln x) & if 0 < x < 1 e-ln x & if x ≥ 1 cases f(x) = cases eln x = x & if 0 < x < 1 1eln x = (1)/(x) & if x ≥ 1 cases

Check continuity at x = 1:

x → 1^- f(x) = x → 1^- x = 1 x → 1^+ f(x) = x → 1^+ (1)/(x) = 1

f(1) = 1. The function is continuous everywhere on (0, ∞). Thus, m = 0.

Check differentiability at x = 1:

LHD = x → 1^- f'(x) = 1 RHD = x → 1^+ f'(x) = -(1)/(x²)|x=1 = -1

Since LHD ≠ RHD, the function is not differentiable at x = 1. Thus, n = 1.

Finally, m + n = 0 + 1 = 1.

Numerical Answer. Answer: 81 to 81

Solution

e^x = 1 + x + (x²)/(2!) + ln(1+x) = x - (x²)/(2) + (x³)/(3) - x ≈ x x² x ≈ x³
Core Logic

Expand the numerator terms using Maclaurin series around x=0:

ax² (1 + x + (x²)/(2) + ) - b (x - (x²)/(2) + (x³)/(3) - ) + cx (1 - x + (x²)/(2) - (x³)/(6) + )

Denominator behavior is x³. Group by powers of x: Coefficient of x: -b + c = 0 c = b Coefficient of x²: a + (b)/(2) - c = 0 a = c - (b)/(2) = (b)/(2) Coefficient of x³: a - (b)/(3) + (c)/(2) = 1

Substitute a = b/2 and c = b into the x³ equation:

(b)/(2) - (b)/(3) + (b)/(2) = 1 b - (b)/(3) = 1 (2b)/(3) = 1 b = (3)/(2)

This gives c = (3)/(2) and a = (3)/(4).

Calculate the required value:

16(a² + b² + c²) = 16((9)/(16) + (9)/(4) + (9)/(4)) = 9 + 36 + 36 = 81

x→ 0 e2| x| - 2| x| - 1x²
  • A. is equal to -1
  • B. does not exist
  • C. is equal to 1
  • D. is equal to 2

Solution

Core Logic

Evaluate x → 0 e2| x| - 2| x| - 1x². Multiply and divide by | x|²:

= x → 0 e2| x| - 2| x| - 1| x|² × ( ² x)/(x²)
Step 1: Substitution and L'Hôpital

Let | x| = t. As x → 0, t → 0.

t → 0 e2t - 2t - 1t² × x → 0 ( ² x)/(x²)

The second limit evaluates to 1. Using L'Hôpital's Rule on the first limit:

= t → 0 2e2t - 22t = t → 0 4e2t2 = 2
Step 2: Final Result

2 × 1 = 2
