JEE Mains · Maths · STD 12 - 1. relation and function

Let for some \(\alpha \in \mathbb{R}\), \(f:\mathbb{R}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}\) be a function satisfying \(f(x+y)=f(x)+2y^2+y+\alpha xy\) for all \(x,y \in \mathbb{R}\). If \(f(0)=-1\) and \(f(1)=2\), then the value of \(\sum_{n=1}^{5}(\alpha+f(n))\) is:

  1. A \(110\)
  2. B \(140\)
  3. C \(150\)
  4. D \(170\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(140\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given \(f(x+y) = f(x) + 2y^2 + y + \alpha xy\) Substituting \(x = 0\) and replacing \(y\) with \(x\), we get: \(f(x) = f(0) + 2x^2 + x + \alpha(0)x\) Since \(f(0) = -1\), we have: \(f(x) = 2x^2 + x - 1\) To find \(\alpha\), substitute \(f(x)\) into the original functional…
