Correct answer: A
We are given
3f(x)+2f(x1)=x1−10(x=0).
We need to find
f(3)+f′(41).
First, replace x by x1 in the given equation:
3f(x1)+2f(x)=x−10.
So we have the system:
3f(x)+2f(x1)=x1−10...(1)2f(x)+3f(x1)=x−10...(2)
Let
a=f(x),b=f(x1).
Then
3a+2b=x1−102a+3b=x−10.
Solve for a.
Multiply the first by 3 and the second by 2:
9a+6b=x3−304a+6b=2x−20.
Subtract:
5a=x3−2x−10f(x)=a=51(x3−2x−10).
Thus,
f(x)=5x3−52x−2.
Now compute f(3):
f(3)=153−56−2=51−56−2=−1−2=−3.
