The correct answer is: 14

We have,

fx=asinπ2x1,    for x0tan2xsin2xbx3,    for  x>0

If function is continuous at x=0, then

LHL=RHL=f0

Now,

LHL=limx0-asinπ2x1

LHL=limh0asinπ20-h1

LHL=limh0asinπ21

LHL=-a

Now,

RHL=limx0+tan2xsin2xbx3

sinx=xx33!+x55!+

tanx=x+x33+2x515+.

RHL=limx0+(2x)33+(2x)36bx3=83+86b=4b

And,

f(0)=asinπ2(01)=asinπ2=a

Then,

RHL=f0

4b=aab=410ab=14
