If `lim_(x -> 1)[(x^4 - 1)/(x - 1)]` = `lim_(x -> "a")[(x^3 - "a"^3)/(x - "a")]`, find all possible values of a

उत्तर

It is given that

`lim_(x -> 1)[(x^4 - 1)/(x - 1)] `= `lim_(x -> "a")[(x^3 - "a"^3)/(x - "a")]`

∴ 4(1)3 = 3.a2    ...`[because  lim_(x -> "a") (x^"n" - "a"^"n")/(x - "a") = "na"^("n" - 1)]`

∴ 4 = 3a2

∴ a2 = `4/3`

∴ a = `± 2/sqrt(3)`
