MCQ
Let the function $f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}\frac{\log _{e}(1+5 x)-\log _{e}(1+\alpha x)}{x} & \text { if } x \neq 0 \\ 10 & \text {; if } x=0\end{array}\right.$ be continuous at $x=0$.The $\alpha$ is equal to.
  • A
    $10$
  • B
    $-10$
  • C
    $5$
  • $-5$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$-5$
d
$f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}\frac{\ln (1+5 x)-\ln (1+\alpha x)}{x} & ; x \neq 0 \\ 10 & ; x=0\end{array}\right.$

$\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{\ln (1+5 x)-\ln (1+\alpha x)}{x}=10$

Using expension

$\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{(5 x+\ldots \ldots)-(\alpha x+\ldots \ldots)}{x}=10$

$5-\alpha=10 \Rightarrow \alpha=-5$
