MCQ
If $\lim _{x \rightarrow-a} \frac{x^9+a^9}{x+a}=9$, then $a=$
  • $\pm 1$
  • B
    $\pm 3$
  • C
    $\pm 2$
  • D
    $\pm 4$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\pm 1$
(A)
$\lim _{x \rightarrow- a } \frac{x^9+ a ^9}{x+ a }=9$
$\Rightarrow \lim _{x \rightarrow- a } \frac{x^9-(- a )^9}{x-(- a )}=9$
$\Rightarrow 9(-a)^{9-1}=9 \Rightarrow a= \pm 1$
