Concept : Continuity, differentiability, partial derivative
Solution :
since ƒ(x) = xg(x)

ƒ (x + y) = ƒ(x) + ƒ(x) + ƒ(x) ƒ(y)
Now we check continuity of ƒ(x)
at x = a
∴ ƒ(x) is continuous ∀ x ∈ R
∴ ƒ(0) = 0
and
∴ ƒ'(0) = 1
Now
ƒ(x + y) = ƒ(x) + ƒ(y) + ƒ(x) ƒ(y)
using partial derivative (w.r.t. y)
ƒ'(x + y) + ƒ'(y) + ƒ(x) + ƒ'(y)
put y = 0
ƒ'(x) = ƒ'(0) + ƒ(x) ƒ'(0)
ƒ'(x) = 1 + ƒ(x)
ƒ(0) = 0 ; c = 0
1 + ƒ(x) = ±ex or ƒ(x) = ± ex – 1
