    Let\[f(x)\]is differentiable at\[x=1\]and \[\underset{h\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{1}{h}(1+h)=5,\]then the value of\[f'(1)\]is

    A)  3                   

    B)  4

    C)  5                   

    D)  6

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     \[f'(1)=\underset{h\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{f(1+h)-f(1)}{h}\] \[=\underset{h\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{f(1+h)}{h}-\underset{h\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{f(1)}{h}\] Since, \[\underset{h\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{f(1+h)}{h}=5\] \[\therefore \] \[\underset{h\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{f(1)}{h}\]will be finite. Since,\[f'(1)\]exist and\[\underset{h\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{f(1)}{h}\]is finite. If\[f(1)=0\]and \[\underset{h\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{f(1)}{h}=0\] \[\therefore \] \[f'(1)=\underset{h\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{f(1+h)}{h}=5\]
