    Where [?] is G.I.F. If f(x) is continuous at x = 0 then\[\beta -\alpha \] equal to

    A) 1

    B) -1

    C) 2

    D) -2

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] : R.H.L \[(x=0)=\alpha +0=\alpha \] Now, \[\frac{\sin x-x}{{{x}^{3}}}=\frac{x-\frac{{{x}^{3}}}{3!}+\frac{{{x}^{5}}}{5!}-.....-x}{{{x}^{3}}}=\frac{-1}{3!}+\frac{{{x}^{2}}}{5!}-.....\] \[\therefore \]\[\underset{x\to 0}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{\sin x-x}{{{x}^{3}}}=\frac{-1}{6}\] L.H.L. \[=\beta -1\] \[f(x)\]is continuous at\[x=0\Rightarrow \beta -1=2=\alpha \] \[\Rightarrow \beta =3,\alpha =2.\]So,\[\beta -\alpha =1\]
