Find Function from Limit Condition Involving Differentiable Function

Step-by-Step Solution

To find the function f(x)f(x), we start by evaluating the given limit for any x>0x > 0:

limtxt10f(x)x10f(t)t9x9=1\lim_{t \to x} \frac{t^{10} f(x) - x^{10} f(t)}{t^9 - x^9} = 1

As txt \to x, the numerator approaches x10f(x)x10f(x)=0x^{10}f(x) - x^{10}f(x) = 0, and the denominator approaches x9x9=0x^9 - x^9 = 0. Since this is an indeterminacy of the form [00]\left[\frac{0}{0}\right] and f(x)f(x) is continuously differentiable, we can apply L'Hôpital's Rule with respect to tt:

limtxddt(t10f(x)x10f(t))ddt(t9x9)=1\lim_{t \to x} \frac{\frac{d}{dt}\left(t^{10} f(x) - x^{10} f(t)\right)}{\frac{d}{dt}\left(t^9 - x^9\right)} = 1

limtx10t9f(x)x10f(t)9t8=1\lim_{t \to x} \frac{10t^9 f(x) - x^{10} f'(t)}{9t^8} = 1

Substituting t=xt = x into the simplified expression gives:

10x9f(x)x10f(x)9x8=1\frac{10x^9 f(x) - x^{10} f'(x)}{9x^8} = 1

Multiply both sides by 9x89x^8:

10x9f(x)x10f(x)=9x810x^9 f(x) - x^{10} f'(x) = 9x^8

Divide through by x9x^9 (since x>0x > 0):

10f(x)xf(x)=9x10 f(x) - x f'(x) = \frac{9}{x}

Rearranging into the standard form of a first-order linear differential equation:

f(x)10xf(x)=9x2f'(x) - \frac{10}{x} f(x) = -\frac{9}{x^2}

To solve this linear differential equation, we find the Integrating Factor (I.F.\text{I.F.}):

I.F.=e10xdx=e10lnx=x10\text{I.F.} = e^{\int -\frac{10}{x} \, dx} = e^{-10 \ln x} = x^{-10}

Multiplying the differential equation by the integrating factor gives:

ddx[f(x)x10]=9x2x10=9x12\frac{d}{dx} \left[ f(x) \cdot x^{-10} \right] = -\frac{9}{x^2} \cdot x^{-10} = -9x^{-12}

Integrating both sides with respect to xx:

f(x)x10=9x12dx+Cf(x) \cdot x^{-10} = \int -9x^{-12} \, dx + C

f(x)x10=9(x1111)+Cf(x) \cdot x^{-10} = -9 \left( \frac{x^{-11}}{-11} \right) + C

f(x)x10=911x11+Cf(x) \cdot x^{-10} = \frac{9}{11} x^{-11} + C

Multiplying through by x10x^{10}:

f(x)=911x+Cx10f(x) = \frac{9}{11x} + C x^{10}

Using the given initial condition f(1)=2f(1) = 2:

f(1)=911(1)+C(1)10=2f(1) = \frac{9}{11(1)} + C(1)^{10} = 2

911+C=2    C=2911=1311\frac{9}{11} + C = 2 \implies C = 2 - \frac{9}{11} = \frac{13}{11}

Thus, the function f(x)f(x) is:

f(x)=911x+1311x10f(x) = \frac{9}{11x} + \frac{13}{11}x^{10}

This matches Option (B).
