MCQ
The value of a for which the function $\text{f(x)}=\begin{cases}5\text{x}-4,&\text{if }0 < \text{x}\leq1\\4\text{x}^2+3\text{ax},&\text{if } < \text{x} < 2\end{cases}$ is continuous at every point of its domain, is :
  • A
    $\frac{13}{3}$
  • B
    $1$
  • C
    $0$
  • $-1$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$-1$
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1^-}\text{f(x)}=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1^+}\text{f(x)}$
$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1}5\text{x}-4=\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow1}4\text{x}^2+3\text{ax}$
$1=4+3\text{a}$
$\text{a}=-1$
