Let f : R →\to R satisfy f(x+y)=2xf(y)+4yf(x)f(x + y) = {2^x}f(y) + {4^y}f(x) , ∀\forall x, y ∈\in R. If f(2) = 3, then 14. f′(4)f′(2)14.\,{{f'(4)} \over {f'(2)}} is equal to ____________.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

∵\because f(x+y)=2xf(y)+4yf(x)f(x + y) = {2^x}f(y) + {4^y}f(x) ....... (1)

Now, f(y+x)2yf(x)+4xf(y)f(y + x){2^y}f(x) + {4^x}f(y) ...... (2)

∴\therefore 2xf(y)+4yf(x)=2yf(x)+4xf(y){2^x}f(y) + {4^y}f(x) = {2^y}f(x) + {4^x}f(y)

(4y−2y)f(x)=(4x−2x)f(y)({4^y} - {2^y})f(x) = ({4^x} - {2^x})f(y)

f(x)4x−2x=f(y)4y−2y=k{{f(x)} \over {{4^x} - {2^x}}} = {{f(y)} \over {{4^y} - {2^y}}} = k

∴\therefore f(x)=k(4x−2x)f(x) = k({4^x} - {2^x})

∵\because f(2)=3f(2) = 3 then k=14k = {1 \over 4}

∴\therefore f(x)=4x−2x4f(x) = {{{4^x} - {2^x}} \over 4}

∴\therefore f′(x)=4xln⁡4−2xln⁡24f'(x) = {{{4^x}\ln 4 - {2^x}\ln 2} \over 4}

f′(x)=(2.4x−2x)ln24f'(x) = {{({{2.4}^x} - {2^x})ln2} \over 4}

∴\therefore f′(4)f′(2)=2.256−162.16−4{{f'(4)} \over {f'(2)}} = {{2.256 - 16} \over {2.16 - 4}}

∴\therefore 14f′(4)f′(2)=24814{{f'(4)} \over {f'(2)}} = 248
