Option $\text{(D)}$ matches with which of the elements of right hand column?

• A. $P$
• B. $Q$
• C. $R$
• D. $S$
• E. $T$

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B)

$Q$

Function is continuous.
So $\underset{x\to 1}{lim}f\left(x\right)=f\left(1\right)$
$\Rightarrow -3a-2=b+a^2\cdots \left(1\right)$
For function to be differentiable,
$-6a=b\cdots \left(2\right)$
From $\left(1\right)$ and $\left(2\right),$ we get
$\Rightarrow -3a-2=-6a+a^2$
$\Rightarrow a^2-3a+2=0\Rightarrow a=1,2$
