Let f(x) be a function such that f(x1)+ f(x+1)=2f(x) for all xR . If f(3)=5 then r=010f(3+8r) is equal to 

a
50
b
55
c
0
d
10

detailed solution

Correct option is B

The given equation is f(x – 1) + f(x + 1) = 2 f (x)          …(i)Replace x by x –1 in  (i) f(x – 2) + f(x) = 2 f(x - 1)         …(ii)Replace x by x +1 in (ii) f(x) + f(x + 2) = 2 f(x+1)           …(iii)Adding (ii) and (iii), we have f(x – 2) + f(x + 2) + 2 f(x) = 2 ( f(x – 1) + f(x + 1))f(x – 2) + f(x + 2) + 2 f(x) = 2 ( f(x – 1) + f(x + 1))   = 2 2 f(x) = 2f(x)⇒f(x –2) =– f (x + 2) Replacing x by x + 2, we havef(x) = –f(x + 4) = – ( f (x + 8)) = f(x + 8)∑r=010 f(3+8r)=11×f(3)=11×5=55
