    If \[\underset{x\to a}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{{{x}^{9}}+{{a}^{9}}}{x+a}=9\], then \[a=\]

    A)                 \[{{9}^{1/8}}\]

    B)                 \[\pm 2\]

    C)                 \[\pm 3\]

    D)                 None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    \[\underset{x\to a}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\,\frac{{{x}^{9}}+{{a}^{9}}}{x+a}=9\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,\frac{2{{a}^{9}}}{2a}=9\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,{{a}^{8}}=9\]\[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,a={{9}^{1/8}}\]
