Let $\mathrm{f}: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be defined as $f(x)=a e^{2 x}+b e^x+c x$. If $f(0)=-1, f^{\prime}\left(\log _e 2\right)=21$ and $\int_0^{\log _e 4}(f(x)-c x) d x=\frac{39}{2}$, then the value of $|a+b+c|$ equals
Solution
<p>$$\begin{array}{ll}
\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=a \mathrm{e}^{2 \mathrm{x}}+b \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{x}}+\mathrm{cx} & \mathrm{f}(0)=-1 \\\\
& \mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}=-1 \\\\
\mathrm{f}^{\prime}(\mathrm{x})=2 a \mathrm{e}^{2 \mathrm{x}}+b \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{x}}+\mathrm{c} & \mathrm{f}^{\prime}(\ln 2)=21 \\\\
& 8 \mathrm{a}+2 \mathrm{~b}+\mathrm{c}=21 \\\\
\int_\limits0^{\ln 4}\left(a \mathrm{e}^{2 \mathrm{x}}+b \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{x}}\right) \mathrm{dx}=\frac{39}{2} &
\end{array}$$</p>
<p>$$\begin{aligned}
& {\left[\frac{\mathrm{ae}^{2 \mathrm{x}}}{2}+\mathrm{be}^{\mathrm{x}}\right]_0^{\ln 4}=\frac{39}{2} \Rightarrow 8 \mathrm{a}+4 \mathrm{~b}-\frac{\mathrm{a}}{2}-\mathrm{b}=\frac{39}{2}} \\\\
& 15 a+6 b=39 \\\\
& 15 a-6 a-6=39 \\\\
& 9 \mathrm{a}=45 \Rightarrow \mathrm{a}=5 \\\\
& b=-6 \\\\
& c=21-40+12=-7 \\\\
& \mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}-8 \\\\
& |\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}|=8 \\\\
\end{aligned}$$</p>
