Question

A function f(x) satisfies the relation f(x + y) = f(x) + f(y) + xy (x + y)  ∀,  x,  y,  ∈  R. If f′(0) = - 1, then

Options

A.f(x) is an exponential function
B.f(x) is a polynomial function
C.f(x) is twice differentiable for all x ∈ R
D.f′(3) = 8

Solution

f(x + y) = f(x) + f(y) + xy (x + y)
f(0) = 0
∴    = - 1
∴    = =   +  x (x + h) = - 1 + x2
∴    f′(x) = - 1 + x2
∴    f(x) =  - x + c.
∴    f(x) is a polynomial function, f(x) is twice differentiable for all x  ∈  R and f′(3) = 32 - 1 = 8
