Question

Suppose f(x) `{:(= "p"x + 3",", "for"  "a" ≤ x ≤ "b"),(= 5x^2 − "q"",", "for"  "b" < x ≤ "c"):}`

Find the condition on p, q, so that f(x) is continuous on [a, c], by filling in the blanks.

f(b) = ______

`lim_(x -> "b"^+) "f"(x)` = _______

∴ pb + 3 = _______ − q

∴ p = `"_____"/"b"` is the required condition

Sum

Solution

f(b) = pb + 3

`lim_(x -> "b"^+) "f"(x)` = 5b2 − q

∴ pb + 3 = 5b2 − q

∴ p = `(5"b"^2 - "q" - 3)/"b"` is the required condition.
