Question
If $\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow{\text{c}}}\frac{\text{f(x)}-\text{f(c)}}{\text{x}-\text{c}}$ exists finitely, write the value of $\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow{\text{c}}}\text{f(x)}.$

Answer

LHL = f(1) = RHL
So, f(x) is continuous at x = 1
Now,
(LHL at x = 1) $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1^{-}}\frac{\text{f(x)}-\text{f}(1)}{\text{x}-1}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(1-\text{h})-\text{f}-(1)}{(1-\text{h})-1}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{1-1}{-\text{h}}$
= Not defined
(RHL at x = 1) $=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1^{+}}\frac{\text{f(x)}-\text{f}(1)}{\text{x}-1}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{\text{f}(1+\text{h})-\text{f}-(1)}{(1+\text{h})-1}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{2(1+\text{h})-1-1}{\text{h}}$
$=\lim\limits_{\text{h}\rightarrow0}\frac{2\text{h}}{\text{h}}$
$=1$
(LHL at x = 1) $\neq$ (RHL at x = 1)
$\therefore$ f(x) is continuous but not differentiable at x = 0 and 1.
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow{\text{c}}}\frac{\text{f(x)}-\text{f(c)}}{\text{x}-\text{c}}$ exists finitely
So,
$\text{f}'(\text{c})=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow{\text{c}}}\frac{\text{f(x)}-\text{f(c)}}{\text{x}-\text{c}}$
$\text{f}'(\text{c})\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow{\text{c}}}(\text{x}-\text{c})=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow{\text{c}}}(\text{x})-\text{f(c)}$
$\text{f}'(\text{c})(\text{c}-\text{c})=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow{\text{c}}}(\text{x})-\text{f(c)}$
$0=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow{\text{c}}}(\text{x})-\text{f(c)}$
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow{\text{c}}}\text{f(x})=\text{f(c)}$

A firm manufactures two types of products $A$ and $B$ and sells them at a profit of Rs. 5 per unit of type $A$ and Rs 3 per unit of type $B$. Each product is processed on two machines $M_1$ and $M_2$. One unit of type $A$ requires one minute of processing time on $M_1$ and two minutes of processing time on $M_2$, whereas one unit of type $B$ requires one minute of processing time on $\mathrm{M}_1$ and one minute on $\mathrm{M}_2$. Machines $\mathrm{M}_1$ and $\mathrm{M}_2$ are respectively available for at most 5 hours and 6 hours in a day. Find out how many units of each type of product should the firm produce a day in order to maximize the profit. Solve the problem graphically.
