The value of lim(x to 1) ((p)/(1-x^(p))-...

The value of `lim_(x to 1) ((p)/(1-x^(p))-(q)/(1-xq)),p,q,inN,` equals

A

`-(3)/(4)`

B

0 if n is even

C

`-(3)/(4)` if n is odd

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`=underset(xto1)lim(p-q+qx^(p)-px^(q))/(1-x^(p)-x^(q)+x^(p+q))" "(0/0)`
`=underset(xto1)lim(pqx^(p-1)-pqx^(q-1))/(-px^(p-1)-qx^(q-1)+(p+q)x^(p+q-1))" "(0/0)`
(L'Hospital's rule)
`=underset(xto1)lim(pq(p1)x^(p-2)-pq(q-1)x^(q-2))/(-p(p-1)x^(p-2)-q(q-1)x^(q-2)+(p+q)(p+q-1)x^(p+q-2))`
(L'Hospital's rule)
`=(p-1)/(2)`
