Question:

If $f$ and $g$ are differentiable functions in $(0, 1)$ satisfying $f (0) = 2 = g (1), g (0) = 0$ and $f (1) = 6$, then for some $c \in ] 0, 1 [$

  • $2f ' (c) = g ' (c)$
  • $2f ' (c) = 3 g ' (c)$
  • $f ' (c) = g ' (c)$
  • $f ' (c) = 2 g ' (c)$

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Using, mean value theorem
$f'(c)=\frac{f(1)-f(0)}{1-0}=4$
$g'(c)=\frac{g(1)-g(0)}{1-0}=2$
so, $f'(c)=2 g'(c)$

Continuity

A function is said to be continuous at a point x = a,  if

limx→a

f(x) Exists, and

limx→a

f(x) = f(a)

It implies that if the left hand limit (L.H.L), right hand limit (R.H.L) and the value of the function at x=a exists and these parameters are equal to each other, then the function f is said to be continuous at x=a.

If the function is undefined or does not exist, then we say that the function is discontinuous.

Conditions for continuity of a function: For any function to be continuous, it must meet the following conditions:

  • The function f(x) specified at x = a, is continuous only if f(a) belongs to real number.
  • The limit of the function as x approaches a, exists.
  • The limit of the function as x approaches a, must be equal to the function value at x = a.
