Let f:RR be a function defined by f(x)=4x4x+2. what is the value of f14+2f12+f34=?
  1. 4
  2. 3
  3. 2
  4. 1

Solution

Given, f(x)=4x4x+2

We will show that for the given function f(1-x)=1-f(x)

f(1-x)=41-x41-x+2

=4·4-x4·4-x+2

=44+2·4x

=4x+2-4x2+4x

=4x+22+4x-4x2+4x

=1-4x2+4x

=1-f(x)

f14=f1-34=1-f34

Now, f14+2f12+f34=1-f34+2f12+f34

=1+2f12

=1+2412412+2

=1+2×24

=2
