Answer:

Correct Answer: 1. (a)

Solution:

  1. Given $\int _6^{f(x)} 4 t^{3} d t=(x-2) g(x)$

$$ \Rightarrow \quad g(x)=\frac{\int _6^{f(x)} 4 t^{3} d t}{(x-2)} $$

So, $\lim _{x \rightarrow 2} g(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow 2} \frac{\int _6^{f(x)} 4 t^{3} d t}{x-2}$

$$ \because \frac{0}{0} \text { form as } x \rightarrow 2 \Rightarrow f(2)=6 $$

$$ \begin{aligned} & \lim _{x \rightarrow 2} g(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow 2} \frac{4(f(x))^{3} f^{\prime}(x)}{1} \\ & \quad \because \frac{d}{d x} \int _{\varphi _1(x)}^{\varphi _2(x)} f(t) d t=f\left(\varphi _2(x)\right), \varphi _2^{\prime}(x)-f\left(\varphi _1(x)\right) \cdot \varphi _1^{\prime}(x) \end{aligned} $$

On applying limit, we get

$$ \begin{aligned} \lim _{x \rightarrow 2} g(x)= & 4(f(2))^{3} f^{\prime}(2)=4 \times(6)^{3} \frac{1}{48}, \\ & \because f(2)=6 \text { and } f^{\prime}(2)=\frac{1}{48} \\ = & \frac{4 \times 216}{48}=18 \end{aligned} $$
