The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the conditions under which the limit \[ \lim_{x \to 0} f(x) = \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin x + ae^x + be^{-x} + c\ln(1+x)}{x^3} \] is finite. ### Step 1: Evaluate the limit at \(x = 0\) First, we substitute \(x = 0\) into the function: \[ f(0) = \frac{\sin(0) + a e^0 + b e^0 + c \ln(1+0)}{0^3} = \frac{0 + a + b + 0}{0} \] This results in the indeterminate form \(\frac{0}{0}\). To resolve this, we apply L'Hôpital's Rule. ### Step 2: Apply L'Hôpital's Rule According to L'Hôpital's Rule, we differentiate the numerator and the denominator: - **Numerator:** \[ \frac{d}{dx}(\sin x + ae^x + be^{-x} + c\ln(1+x)) = \cos x + ae^x - be^{-x} + \frac{c}{1+x} \] - **Denominator:** \[ \frac{d}{dx}(x^3) = 3x^2 \] Now we have: \[ \lim_{x \to 0} f(x) = \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\cos x + ae^x - be^{-x} + \frac{c}{1+x}}{3x^2} \] ### Step 3: Evaluate the limit again at \(x = 0\) Substituting \(x = 0\) again gives: \[ \frac{\cos(0) + a - b + c}{0} = \frac{1 + a - b + c}{0} \] This is still an indeterminate form \(\frac{0}{0}\). Therefore, we apply L'Hôpital's Rule again. ### Step 4: Differentiate again Differentiate the numerator and denominator again: - **Numerator:** \[ \frac{d}{dx}(\cos x + ae^x - be^{-x} + \frac{c}{1+x}) = -\sin x + ae^x + be^{-x} - \frac{c}{(1+x)^2} \] - **Denominator:** \[ \frac{d}{dx}(3x^2) = 6x \] Now we have: \[ \lim_{x \to 0} f(x) = \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{-\sin x + ae^x + be^{-x} - \frac{c}{(1+x)^2}}{6x} \] ### Step 5: Evaluate the limit again at \(x = 0\) Substituting \(x = 0\) gives: \[ \frac{0 + a + b - c}{0} = \frac{a + b - c}{0} \] This is still indeterminate. Thus, we need to ensure that the numerator approaches 0 as \(x\) approaches 0. ### Step 6: Set conditions for the limit to exist From our earlier steps, we derived two conditions: 1. \(1 + a - b + c = 0\) 2. \(a + b - c = 0\) ### Step 7: Solve the equations From the first equation, we can express \(c\): \[ c = -1 - a + b \] Substituting \(c\) into the second equation: \[ a + b - (-1 - a + b) = 0 \implies a + b + 1 + a - b = 0 \implies 2a + 1 = 0 \implies a = -\frac{1}{2} \] Substituting \(a\) back to find \(b\): \[ b = \frac{1}{2} - c \] Substituting \(a\) into the first equation gives: \[ 1 - \frac{1}{2} - b + c = 0 \implies \frac{1}{2} - b + c = 0 \] ### Final Step: Conclusion After solving these equations, we find that: \[ c = 0, \quad a = -\frac{1}{2}, \quad b = \frac{1}{2} \] Thus, the final answer is: \[ \boxed{-\frac{1}{3}} \]
