If $\lim _{x \rightarrow \infty}\left(\frac{x^2+x+1}{x+1}-a x-b\right)=4$, then
  • A
    $a=1, b=4$
  • $a=1, b=-4$
  • C
    $a=2, b=-3$
  • D
    $a=2, b=3$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$a=1, b=-4$
b
$\lim _{x \rightarrow \infty}\left(\frac{x^2+x+1}{x+1}-a x-b\right)=4 $

$\lim _{x \rightarrow \infty}\left(\frac{x^2(1-a)+x(1-a-b)+(1-b)}{x+1}\right)=4$

Limit is finite

It exists when $\quad 1- a =0 \quad \Rightarrow a =1$

then

$\lim _{x \rightarrow \infty}\left(\frac{1-a-b+\frac{1-b}{x}}{1+\frac{1}{x}}\right)=4$

$\therefore \quad 1-a-b=4 \quad \Rightarrow \quad b=-4$

If $\lim _{x \rightarrow 0}\left[1+x \ln \left(1+b^2\right)\right]^{\frac{1}{x}}=2 b \sin ^2 \theta, b>0 \text { and } \theta \in(-\pi, \pi],$ then the value of $\theta$ is
  • A
    $\pm \frac{\pi}{4}$
  • B
    $\pm \frac{\pi}{3}$
  • C
    $\pm \frac{\pi}{6}$
  • $\pm \frac{\pi}{2}$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$\pm \frac{\pi}{2}$
d
$e^{\ln \left(1+b^2\right)}=2 b \sin ^2 \theta$

$\Rightarrow \sin ^2 \theta=\frac{1+b^2}{2 b}$

$\Rightarrow \sin ^2 \theta=1 \text { as } \frac{1+b^2}{2 b} \geq 1$

$\theta=\pm \frac{\pi}{2}$

MCQ 2031 Mark
Let $L=\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{a-\sqrt{a^2-x^2}-\frac{x^2}{4}}{x^4}, \quad a>0 .$ If $L$ is finite, then

$(A)$ $\quad a=2$ $(B)$ $a=1$ $(C)$ $L=\frac{1}{64}$ $(D)$ $L=\frac{1}{32}$

  • A
    $(A,B)$
  • $(A,C)$
  • C
    $(B,D)$
  • D
    $(B,C)$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$(A,C)$
b
$L=\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{a-\sqrt{a^2-x^2}-\frac{x^2}{4}}{x^4}$

$=\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{a-a\left(1-\frac{x^2}{a^2} \frac{1}{2}-\frac{x^2}{4}\right.}{x^4}$

$=\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{a-a\left(1-\frac{1 x^2}{2 a^2}+\frac{\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{2} 1\right)}{2}\left(\frac{-x^2}{a^2}\right)^2\right)^{-\frac{x^2}{4}}}{x^4}$

$=\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{a-a\left(1-\frac{1 x^2}{2 a^2} \frac{1 x^4}{8 a_4}\right)-\frac{x^2}{4}}{x^4}$

$=\lim _{ x \rightarrow 0} \frac{\frac{1 x ^2}{2 a }+\frac{1 x ^4}{8 x ^2} \frac{ x ^4}{4}}{ x ^4}$

$=\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{x^2\left(\frac{1}{2 a} \frac{1}{4}\right)+\frac{x^4}{8 a^3}}{x^4}$

Limit is finite, when $\frac{1}{2 a }=\frac{1}{4}$

$a =2$

$\therefore L =\frac{1}{8 a ^3}$

$\therefore L =\frac{1}{8 \times 4}$

$\therefore L =\frac{1}{64}$

$\therefore L =\frac{1}{64}, a =2$

Let $p(x)$ be a polynomial of degree $4$ having extremum at $x=1,2$ and $\lim _{x \rightarrow 0}\left(1+\frac{p(x)}{x^2}\right)=2 .$ Then the value of $p(2)$ is
  • A
    $5$
  • $0$
  • C
    $2$
  • D
    $9$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$0$
b
Let $P ( x )= ax ^4+ bx ^3+ cx ^2+ dx + e$

When $x \rightarrow o$ then, for existence of $\frac{P(x)}{x^2} d=e=o$ and $\lim _{x \rightarrow 0}\left(1+\frac{P(x)}{x^2}\right)=2$

So $c=1$.

$P^{\prime}(1)=P^{\prime}(2)=0$

$4 a+3 b+2 c+d=0$

$4 a+3 b+2=0 \quad \ldots \ldots \ldots . \text { eq. } 1$

$4 a \cdot 8+3 b \cdot 4+2 c \cdot 2+d=0$

$32 a+12 b+4 c+d=0$

$32 a+12 b+4=0 \quad \ldots \ldots . \text { eq. }$

By solving eq. $1$ and eq. $2$ we get $a =\frac{1}{4} ; b =-1$

So, $P ( x )=\frac{1}{4} x ^4- x ^3+ x ^2$.

$P (2)=4-8+4=0$

==> $n((a - n)n - 1) = 0 \Rightarrow (a - n)n = 1 $

$\Rightarrow a = n + \frac{1}{n}$.

The integer $n$ for which $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \,\frac{{(\cos x - 1)\,(\cos x - {e^x})}}{{{x^n}}}$ is a finite non-zero number is
  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • $3$
  • D
    $4$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$3$
c
(c) $n$ cannot be negative integer for then the limit $= 0$

Limit $ = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{{2{{\sin }^2}\frac{x}{2}}}{{{2^2}{{(x/2)}^2}}}\frac{{{e^x} - \cos x}}{{{x^{n - 2}}}} = \frac{1}{2}\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{{{e^x} - \cos x}}{{{x^{n - 2}}}}$

$(n \ne 1$ for then the limit $ = 0)$

$ = \frac{1}{2}\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \frac{{{e^x} + \sin x}}{{(n - 2){x^{n - 3}}}}$.

So, if $n = 3,$ the limit is $\frac{1}{{2(n - 2)}}$ which is finite.

If $n = 4,$ the limit is infinite.

    $1$
  • $0$
  • C
    $-1$
  • D
    None of these
Answer
Correct option: B.
$0$
b
(b) Here $f(0) = 0$

Since $ - 1 \le \sin \frac{1}{x} \le 1\,\, \Rightarrow \,\, - |\,\,x\,\,|\,\, \le x\sin \frac{1}{x} \le \,\,|\,\,x\,\,|$

We know that $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \,\,|\,\,x\,\,|\, = 0$ and $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \,\,|\,\,x\,\,|\, = 0$

In this way $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} \,\,f(x) = 0.$

  • A
    $-1$
  • B
    $1$
  • C
    $0$
  • None of these
Answer
Correct option: D.
None of these
d
(d) In closed interval of $x = 0$ at right hand side $[x] = 0$ and at left hand side $[x] = - 1.$ Also $[0]=0.$ 

Therefore function is defined as $f(x) = \left\{ \begin{array}{l}\frac{{\sin \,[x]}}{{[x]}}\,\,( - 1 \le x < 0)\\\;\;\;\;\;0\;\;(0 \le x < 1)\end{array} \right.$

$\therefore$ Left hand limit $ = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0 - } f(x) = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0 - } \,\frac{{\sin \,[x]}}{{[x]}}$

$ = \frac{{\sin \,( - 1)}}{{ - 1}} = \sin {1^c}$

Right hand limit $= 0$. 

Hence limit doesn't exist.

  • A
    $\frac{\pi }{2}$
  • B
    $\pi $
  • $\frac{2}{\pi }$
  • D

Answer
Correct option: C.
$\frac{2}{\pi }$
c
(c) $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 1} \,(1 - x)\tan \,\left( {\frac{{\pi x}}{2}} \right)$.

Put $1 - x = y$ as $x \to 1,\,\,y \to 0$

Thus $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{y \to 0} \,\,y\tan \frac{{\pi \,(1 - y)}}{2} = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{y \to 0} \,\,\frac{2}{\pi }.\frac{{\left( {\frac{{\pi y}}{2}} \right)}}{{\tan \,\left( {\frac{{\pi y}}{2}} \right)}} $

$= \frac{2}{\pi } \times 1 = \frac{2}{\pi }$.
