If f(x) is a function satisfying f(x+y)=f(x)f(y) for all x,y `in` N such that f(1)=3 and `sum_(x=1)^(n) f(x)=120`. Then, the value of n isA. 4B. 5C. 6D. none of these |
Answer» Correct Answer - A We have, `f(x+y)=f(x)f(y)" for all "x,yinN`. `:." "f(x)={f(1)}^(x)=3^(x)" "[becausef(1)=3]` Now, `underset(x=1)overset(n)sumf(x)=120` `rArr" "underset(x=1)overset(n)sum3^(x)=120` `rArr" "(3(3^(n)-1))/((3-1))=120rArr3^(n)-1=80rArr3^(n)=3^(4)rArrn=4` |
