k के किन मानों के लिए निम्नलिखित प्रणाली स्थिर है: y = (k² − 3k − 4)log(x) + sin(x)?

उत्तर और चरणबद्ध हल
सही उत्तर: D. k = 4, − 1
संक्षिप्त व्याख्या

D — k = 4, −1। x → 0⁺ पर log(x) अपरिबद्ध हो जाता है, इसलिए स्थिरता के लिए उसका गुणांक शून्य होना चाहिए: k² − 3k − 4 = 0 → (k − 4)(k + 1) = 0 → k = 4 या −1।

विस्तृत हल (मूल भाषा में)

Concept & Reasoning

Factor the parameter polynomial: k²−3k−4=(k−4)(k+1). If its coefficient is nonzero, log(x) can grow without bound for bounded positive inputs approaching zero, violating a BIBO-style bounded-output requirement. Setting the coefficient to zero leaves sin(x), which is bounded between −1 and 1.

How to Solve It in the Exam

Unbounded function term? Force its coefficient to zero.

Important Exam Point

After cancelling log(x), confirm the remaining sin(x) term is bounded.

Quick Trick

Unbounded function term? Force its coefficient to zero.

Common Mistake

Solving the quadratic incorrectly or checking only positive k.
