Solution

The correct option is C k=2
Given : f(x)=limnex21+[(a+b)x(ab)]x2nx2n+1+cosx1,xR{0}k,x=0
f(x)=⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ex21cosx1,0<x2<1k,x=0(a+b)x(ab)x,x2>1

Checking the continuity at x=1, we get
limx1ex21cosx1=e1cos11limx1+(a+b)x(ab)x=2bb=e12(cos11)

Checking the continuity at x=1, we get
limx1+ex21cosx1=e1cos11limx1(a+b)x(ab)x=(a+b)a+b12a=e1(cos11)a=b

Now, as f(x) is continuous for all xR, so
f(0)=limx0ex21cosx1
Using L'Hospital's Rule, we get
k=limx0ex2×2xsinx=2

f(0+)=limh0f(h)f(0)hf(0+)=limh0eh21cosh1+2hf(0+)=limh03eh22cosh2hsin2h2f(0+)=limh02(3eh22cosh)h3
Using L'Hospital's Rule, we get
f(0+)=limh02(eh22h+2sinh)3h2f(0+)=limh02(eh24h22eh2+2cosh)6hf(0+)=limh04(eh2+cosh)6hf(0+)=limh04(eh22hsinh)6f(0+)=0
Similarly,
f(0)=0f(0)=0
