    Let \[f(2)=4\] and \[f'\,(2)=4\]. Then,\[\underset{x\to 2}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{xf(2)-2f(x)}{x-2}\] is given by   AIEEE  Solved  Paper-2002

    A) 2                                                             

    B) \[-2\]       

    C)                           \[-4\]       

    D)                        3

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

       \[\underset{x\to 2}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{xf(2)-2f(x)}{x-2}\]                     \[=\underset{x\to 2}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{xf(2)-2f(2)+2f(2)-2f(x)}{x-2}\]                    \[=\underset{x\to 2}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\frac{f(2)(x-2)-2\{f(x)-f(2)\}}{x-2}\]                    \[=f(2)-2\underset{x\to 2}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\,\frac{f(x)-f(2)}{x-2}\]                    \[=f(2)-2f\,'(2)=4-2\times 4=-4\]  Alternate Solution                \[\underset{x\to 2}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\left\{ \frac{xf(2)-2f(x)}{x-2} \right\}\]              \[=\underset{x\to 2}{\mathop{\lim }}\,\{f(2)-2f'(x)\}\]     (by L? Hospital rule)   \[=f(2)-2f'(2)=4-2\times 4=-4\]
