Question:

Let f : [-10,10] → R, where f(x) = sin x + [x2/a] be an odd function. Then set of values of parameter ‘a’ is/are:

Options:

(-10, 10) - {0}

(0, 10)

[100, ∞)

(100, ∞)

Correct Answer:

(100, ∞)

Explanation:

Since f(x) is an odd function,

$[\frac{x^2}{a}]= 0$ for all x ∈ [-10, 10]

⇒ $0≤ \frac{x^2}{a}< 1$ for all x ∈ [-10, 10] ⇒ a > 100.

Hence (D) is the correct answer.
