Krishna Iyer answered
lim(x → 0) (tanx-x)/x2 tanx
As we know that tan x = sinx/cosx
lim(x → 0) (sinx/cosx - x)/x2(sinx/cosx)
lim(x → 0) (sinx - xcosx)/(x2 sinx)
lim(x → 0) cosx - (-xsinx + cosx)/(x2cosx + sinx (2x))
lim(x → 0) (cosx + xsinx - cosx)/x2cosx + 2xsinx)
lim(x → 0) sinx/(xcosx + 2sinx)
Hence it is 0/0 form, apply L hospital rule
lim(x → 0) cosx/(-xsinx + cosx + 2cosx)
⇒ 1/(0+1+2)
= 1/3

The derivative of f(x) = 99x at x = 100 is:​
  • a)
    9900
  • b)
    0
  • c)
    99
  • d)
    100
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Raghav Bansal answered
f'(100) = lim(h→0) [f(100+h) - f(100)]/h
= lim(h→0) [99(100+h) - 99(100)]/h
= lim(h→0) [9900 + 99h - 9900]/h
= lim(h→0) 99h/h
= lim(h→0) 99
= 99

lim (x → 0) [((1-3x)+5x)/(1-3x)]1/x
lim (x → 0) [1 + 5x/(1-3x)]1/x
= elim(x → 0) (1 + 5x/(1-3x) - 1) * (1/x) 
= elim(x → 0) (5x/(1-3x)) * (1/x)
= elim(x → 0) (5x/(1-3x))
= e5

  • The process of determining the derivative of a function is known as differentiation. It is clearly visible that the basic concept of derivative of a function is closely intertwined with limits. Therefore, it can be expected that the rules of derivatives are similar to that of limits.
  • The following rules are a part of algebra of derivatives:
    Consider f and g to be two real-valued functions such that the differentiation of these functions is defined in a common domain.

lim(x → 0) (x2x - x)/(1-cosx)
lim(x → 0) x2(2x - 1)/x(1-cosx)
By formula : lim(x → 0) (ax - 1)/x = log a

Om Desai answered
Since the number of terms is finite, just differentiate term by term using the power rule.
 dy/dx = 0 + 1 + 2x/2! + 3x2/3! + ... + nxn-1/n!
dy/dx = 1 + x + x2/2! + ... + xn-1/(n -1)!
Compare dy/dx to y and note that the last term of y, which is xn/n!, is not in dy/dx, while all the other terms of y are in dy/dx.
Then dy/dx = y - xn/n! 
⇒ dy/dx + xn/n! = y

lim(x → 1) (log2 2x)1/log2x
= lim(x →1) (log22 + log2x)1/log2x
As we know that {log ab = log a + log b}
lim(x → 1) {1 + log2x}1/log2x
log2x → 0
Put t = log2x
lim(t → 0) {1 + t}1/t

Sushil Kumar answered
 limx→1x9−1/x5−1 has indeterminate initial form (it has form 0/0). Therefore 1is a zero and x−1 a factor of both the numerator and the denominator.
limx→1 x10−1/x5−1
= limx→1[(x−1)(x8+x7+x4….⋅+x+1)]/(x−1)(x5+x6+x4+⋅⋅⋅+x+1)
= (1+1+1+1+.....upto 10 terms)/(1+1+1+⋅⋅⋅upto 5 terms)
= 10/5 = 2

The number L is called the limit of function f(x) as x → a if and only if, for every ε>0 there exists δ>0
which is written as 
lim (x → a) |f(x) − l|
lim (x → a) f(x) = l

Praveen Kumar answered
If we substitute the value of x=0 in numerator and denominator, we get the indeterminate form 0/0 . We should use L'hopital's rule.
lim x→ 0 (√1+2x-√1-2x)/sinx
Differentiate it we get
lim x→ 0 (1/√1+2x) + (1/√1-2x)/cosx
= (1/√1+2(0)) + (1/√1-2(0))/cos 0
=2

Sinx -x/x^3 it is in 0/0 form 
so use L hospital rule,
using it we get :  cosX-1/3x^2
again using : -sinX/3*2X=-1/6 lim sinx/x=-1/6

f(x) = 2
Hence it doesnt contain any variable
so, lim(x → 2) f(x) = 2

If the right and left hand limits coincide, we call that common value as the limit of f(x) at x = a and denote it by
  • a)
  • b)
  • c)
  • d)
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Gaurav Kumar answered
If the right-hand and left-hand limits coincide, we say the common value as the limit of f(x) at x = a and denote it by limx→a f(x) = l
  • If limx→a- f(x) is the expected value of f at x = a given the values of ‘f’ near x to the left of a. This value is known as the left-hand limit of ‘f’ at a.
  • If limx→a+ f(x) is the expected value of f at x = a given the values of ‘f’ near x to the right of a. This value is known as the right-hand limit of f(x) at a.

It's very easy man... Go for l'hospital method.. This method is only applied when u ve 0/0 form after applying the limit 2 so when u get this form differentiate it... I hope u know differentiation ... On differentiating u get 3x^2 and now simply putting the limit u get the value 12... I hope it works for u

lim x → 2 [(2x - 4) (2x - 2) ((√2x) + 2)]/[(√2x - 2) (√2x - 2)]
= lim x → 2 [(2x - 4) (2 *4)]/(√2x - 2)
= 2 lim(x → 2) [(√2x)2 - (2)2]/(√2x - 2)
= 2 lim(x → 2) [(√2x)2 + 2) (√2x)2 - 2)]/(√2x - 2)
= 8

    2
  • d)
    0
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Pooja Shah answered
Let f(x) = a, where a is a fixed real number.
So, f(x+h) = a
So, d/dx(f(x)) = lim(h→0)f[(x+h)−f(x)]/h
= lim(h→0) (a−a)/h
= 0
Hence, d/dx(a) = 0 , where a is a fixed real number.

Gaurav Kumar answered
Given, y = (sinx+cosx)/(sinx−cosx)
∴ dydx = [(sinx−cosx)(cosx−sinx)−(sinx+cosx)(cosx+sinx)]/(sinx−cosx)2 
[by quotient rule]
= [(−sinx−cosx)2 − (sinx+cosx)2]/(sinx−cosx)2
− [(sinx−cosx)2 − (sinx+cosx)2]/(sinx−cosx)2
= − [(sin2x + cos2x − 2sinxcosx + sin2x + cos2x + 2sinxcosx)]/(sinx−cosx)2
= −2/(sinx−cosx)2
= -2/(sin2x + cos2x - 2sinxcosx)
= - 2/(1 - sin2x)
