Limit Continuity and Differentiability 1 Question 10

11. If $\lim _{x \rightarrow \infty} \frac{x^{2}+x+1}{x+1}-a x-b=4$, then

(a) $a=1, b=4$

(b) $a=1, b=-4$

(c) $a=2, b=-3$

(d) $a=2, b=3$

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 11. (b)

Solution:

  1. Here, $\lim _{x \rightarrow 0}(\sin x)^{1 / x}+\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{1}{x}^{\sin x}$

$$ =0+\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} e^{\log \frac{1}{x}}=e^{\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{\log (1 / x)}{\operatorname{cosec} x}} \quad \begin{aligned} & \lim _{x \rightarrow 0}(\sin x)^{1 / x} \rightarrow 0 \\ & \\ & \text { as, }(\text { decimal })^{\infty} \rightarrow 0 \end{aligned} $$

Applying L’Hospital’s rule, we get

$$ e^{\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{x-\frac{1}{x^{2}}}{-\operatorname{cosec} x \cot x}}=e^{\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{\sin x}{x} \tan x}=e^{0}=1 $$
