If $\mathrm{f}$ and $\mathrm{g}$ are differentiable functions satisfying $\mathrm{g}^{\prime}(\mathrm{a})=2,…

If $\mathrm{f}$ and $\mathrm{g}$ are differentiable functions satisfying $\mathrm{g}^{\prime}(\mathrm{a})=2, \mathrm{~g}(\mathrm{a})=\mathrm{b}$ and $\mathrm{fog}=\mathrm{I}$, where is an identity function, then $\mathrm{f}^{\prime}(\mathrm{b})$ is equal to
  1. $\frac{1}{2}$
  2. $\frac{3}{2}$
  3. $\frac{2}{3}$
  4. 2

Solution

Given $g(a)=b, g^{\prime}(a)=2, f[g(x)]=x$ Now $f^{\prime}[g(x)] g^{\prime}(x)=1 \Rightarrow f^{\prime}(g(x))=\frac{1}{g^{\prime}(x)}$ Put $x=a$, we get $f^{\prime}[g(a)]=\frac{1}{g^{\prime}(a)} \Rightarrow f^{\prime}(b)=\frac{1}{2}$
