The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the constants \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \) such that \[ \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{a x e^x - b \log(1+x) + c x e^{-x}}{x^2 \sin x} = 2. \] ### Step 1: Simplify the expression As \( x \to 0 \), we can use the approximations: - \( \sin x \approx x \) - \( \log(1+x) \approx x \) Thus, we can rewrite the limit as: \[ \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{a x e^x - b x + c x e^{-x}}{x^2 x} = \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{a x e^x - b x + c x e^{-x}}{x^3}. \] ### Step 2: Factor out \( x \) Now, we can factor \( x \) out from the numerator: \[ = \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{x(a e^x - b + c e^{-x})}{x^3} = \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{a e^x - b + c e^{-x}}{x^2}. \] ### Step 3: Apply L'Hôpital's Rule Since both the numerator and denominator approach 0 as \( x \to 0 \), we can apply L'Hôpital's Rule: \[ = \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{a e^x - c e^{-x}}{2x}. \] ### Step 4: Apply L'Hôpital's Rule again Again, both the numerator and denominator approach 0, so we apply L'Hôpital's Rule a second time: \[ = \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{a e^x + c e^{-x}}{2}. \] ### Step 5: Evaluate the limit Now, substituting \( x = 0 \): \[ = \frac{a + c}{2}. \] ### Step 6: Set the limit equal to 2 To satisfy the original condition, we set: \[ \frac{a + c}{2} = 2. \] Multiplying through by 2 gives: \[ a + c = 4. \quad \text{(Equation 1)} \] ### Step 7: Find conditions from the first derivative From the first application of L'Hôpital's Rule, we also need: \[ a - c = 0. \quad \text{(Equation 2)} \] ### Step 8: Solve the equations From Equation 2, we have: \[ a = c. \] Substituting \( c \) with \( a \) in Equation 1: \[ a + a = 4 \implies 2a = 4 \implies a = 2. \] ### Step 9: Find \( c \) Since \( a = c \), we have: \[ c = 2. \] ### Step 10: Find \( b \) Now, we substitute \( a \) and \( c \) back into Equation 1 to find \( b \): \[ a + c = b \implies 2 + 2 = b \implies b = 4. \] ### Final Result Thus, the values of \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \) are: \[ a = 2, \quad b = 4, \quad c = 2. \]
