Correct answer: C

  1. Given functional equation

We have f(x)+f(x+k)=nfor all x∈R,f(x)+f(x+k)=n \quad \text{for all } x\in \mathbb R,f(x)+f(x+k)=nfor all x∈R, where k>0k>0k>0 and nnn is a positive integer.

We need to compute I1=∫04nkf(x) dx,I2=∫−k3kf(x) dx.I_1=\int_0^{4nk} f(x)\,dx, \qquad I_2=\int_{-k}^{3k} f(x)\,dx.I1​=∫04nk​f(x)dx,I2​=∫−k3k​f(x)dx.


  1. A useful consequence of the functional equation

Replace xxx by x+kx+kx+k: f(x+k)+f(x+2k)=n.f(x+k)+f(x+2k)=n.f(x+k)+f(x+2k)=n.

From the original equation, f(x+k)=n−f(x).f(x+k)=n-f(x).f(x+k)=n−f(x). So, f(x+2k)=n−f(x+k)=n−(n−f(x))=f(x).f(x+2k)=n-f(x+k)=n-(n-f(x))=f(x).f(x+2k)=n−f(x+k)=n−(n−f(x))=f(x).

Hence, f(x+2k)=f(x)\boxed{f(x+2k)=f(x)}f(x+2k)=f(x)​ for all xxx. Thus fff is periodic with period 2k2k2k.


  1. Integral over one period

Let J=∫02kf(x) dx.J=\int_0^{2k} f(x)\,dx.J=∫02k​f(x)dx.

Using the given relation, ∫0k(f(x)+f(x+k)) dx=∫0kn dx=nk.\int_0^k \big(f(x)+f(x+k)\big)\,dx=\int_0^k n\,dx=nk.∫0k​(f(x)+f(x+k))dx=∫0k​ndx=nk.

But ∫0kf(x+k) dx=∫k2kf(t) dt.\int_0^k f(x+k)\,dx=\int_k^{2k} f(t)\,dt.∫0k​f(x+k)dx=∫k2k​f(t)dt. So, ∫0kf(x) dx+∫k2kf(t) dt=nk.\int_0^k f(x)\,dx+\int_k^{2k} f(t)\,dt=nk.∫0k​f(x)dx+∫k2k​f(t)dt=nk. Therefore,

So, ∫02kf(x) dx=nk.\boxed{\int_0^{2k} f(x)\,dx=nk.}∫02k​f(x)dx=nk.​


  1. Evaluate I1I_1I1​

Since fff has period 2k2k2k, the interval [0,4nk][0,4nk][0,4nk] contains 4nk2k=2n\frac{4nk}{2k}=2n2k4nk​=2n full periods.

Therefore, I1=2n∫02kf(x) dx=2n(nk)=2n2k.I_1=2n\int_0^{2k} f(x)\,dx=2n(nk)=2n^2k.I1​=2n∫02k​f(x)dx=2n(nk)=2n2k. So, I1=2n2k.\boxed{I_1=2n^2k.}I1​=2n2k.​


  1. Evaluate I2I_2I2​

We have I2=∫−k3kf(x) dx.I_2=\int_{-k}^{3k} f(x)\,dx.I2​=∫−k3k​f(x)dx. The interval length is 3k−(−k)=4k=2(2k),3k-(-k)=4k=2(2k),3k−(−k)=4k=2(2k), which is exactly two periods.

Hence, I2=2∫02kf(x) dx=2(nk)=2nk.I_2=2\int_0^{2k} f(x)\,dx=2(nk)=2nk.I2​=2∫02k​f(x)dx=2(nk)=2nk. So, I2=2nk.\boxed{I_2=2nk.}I2​=2nk.​

(You can also verify by splitting as [−k,k][-k,k][−k,k] and [k,3k][k,3k][k,3k], each of length 2k2k2k.)


  1. Check the options

Now, I1+nI2=2n2k+n(2nk)=2n2k+2n2k=4n2k.I_1+nI_2=2n^2k+n(2nk)=2n^2k+2n^2k=4n^2k.I1​+nI2​=2n2k+n(2nk)=2n2k+2n2k=4n2k. Thus, I1+nI2=4n2k.\boxed{I_1+nI_2=4n^2k.}I1​+nI2​=4n2k.​

So option C is correct.

Let us quickly reject others:

  • A: I1+2I2=2n2k+4nk,I_1+2I_2=2n^2k+4nk,I1​+2I2​=2n2k+4nk, not always equal to 4nk4nk4nk.

  • B: I1+2I2=2n2k+4nk,I_1+2I_2=2n^2k+4nk,I1​+2I2​=2n2k+4nk, not always equal to 2nk2nk2nk.

  • D: I1+nI2=4n2k,I_1+nI_2=4n^2k,I1​+nI2​=4n2k, not 6n2k6n^2k6n2k.


  1. Conclusion

The correct option is C.\boxed{\text{C}}.C​.
