Practicing Success
Let $f: R \rightarrow R$ and $g: R \rightarrow R$ be differentiable functions such that $f(x)=x^3+3 x+2, g(f(x))=x$ for all $x \in R$. Then, $g^{\prime}(2)=$ |
$\frac{1}{15}$ $\frac{1}{5}$ $\frac{1}{3}$ 15 |
$\frac{1}{3}$ |
We have, ∴ $g(f(x))=x$ for all $x \in R$ $\Rightarrow gof(x)=x$ for all $x \in R$ $\Rightarrow g=f^{-1}$ and $g'(f(x)) f'(x)=1$ for all $x \in R$ .......(i) Now, $f(x)=2 \Rightarrow x^3+3 x+2=2 \Rightarrow x\left(x^2+3\right)=0 \Rightarrow x=0$ ∴ $f(0)=2$ Putting x = 0 in (i). we obtain $g'(f(0)) f'(0)=1$ $\Rightarrow g'(2) \times f'(0)=1$ $\Rightarrow g'(2)=\frac{1}{f'(0)}=\frac{1}{3}$ $\left[\begin{array}{l} ∵ f(x)=x^3+3 x+2 \\ \Rightarrow f'(x)=3 x^2+3 \Rightarrow f'(0)=3\end{array}\right]$ |
