i find doing it with first principle tricky sometimes 😭

basically the function is of the type f(x)=x^a You can directly take it like this And from the given condition the value of a comes out to be 1 So its just f(x)=x Put the value get the ans

how....lhs would have /2^a but rhs would have /2

I'm ngl, sometimes it is useful to consider f(x)=kx (It takes mere seconds to check). Here you can see by trial and error f(x)=x satisfies the functional equation.

kk otherwise theres no way except first principle right this assumption is wrong no? it only held true cuz a was 1

There might be. I don't have pen and paper on me, so will try later.

After putting the given condition a is coming out to be 1

if function was x^3 then your assumption and consequently the ans would have been wrong
Real potato

You can even consider any other function pf your choice Is should just satisfy the condition

ok check for x^any power except 1 no ..

Why to complicate it bro I didnt get it?
Imine
ImineOP•3mo ago
coincidence...if function was x^2 or x^3 you would have got wrong
Real potato

Definitely

u got lucky a was 1

The condition is given for this purpose only

Are if we are not able to figure out the function by assuming then we have to go for first principal
Imine
ImineOP•3mo ago
we can try differentiation
Real potato
Real potato•3mo ago
Here the que was very simple and it is very clearly visible that f(x)=x satisfies the condition so to save time we can directly use this method wherever applicable
Imine
ImineOP•3mo ago
its not a method you're just putting in values thats fine but i wanted to see how to do it with differenting or any other general method
Real potato
Real potato•3mo ago
You can then use first principal to determine the function first Then putting in the values

I dont think so there is any alt for this

hmm ill try to post an alt in a while tried using partial differentiation?

Ohh, calculation error 😔
CorrodedCoffin
CorrodedCoffin•3mo ago
partial differentiation ho bohot jaldi jata hai but it takes patience to figure the appropriate values to put

thanks yeah did some silly error in hindsight 😭 +solved @hardcoreisdead
