  Given f(x) =  { ((x^2 −5x+a ; x>1)),((((3x+2)/(x−b)) ; x≤1)) :}    if f(x) passes through at point     (2,−4) and lim_(x→1)  f(x) exist , find   the value of 3a+2b.
$$\:\:\mathrm{Given}\:\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}\right)\:=\:\begin{cases}{\mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{5x}+\mathrm{a}\:;\:\mathrm{x}>\mathrm{1}}\\{\frac{\mathrm{3x}+\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{x}−\mathrm{b}}\:;\:\mathrm{x}\leqslant\mathrm{1}}\end{cases} \\ $$$$\:\:\mathrm{if}\:\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}\right)\:\mathrm{passes}\:\mathrm{through}\:\mathrm{at}\:\mathrm{point}\: \\ $$$$\:\:\left(\mathrm{2},−\mathrm{4}\right)\:\mathrm{and}\:\underset{{x}\rightarrow\mathrm{1}} {\mathrm{lim}}\:\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}\right)\:\mathrm{exist}\:,\:\mathrm{find} \\ $$$$\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{value}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{3a}+\mathrm{2b}.\: \\ $$

f(2)=−4⇒4−10+a=−4⇒a=2  f(1^+ ) = 1−5+2=−2  f(1^− )=(5/(1−b))=−2⇒b=(7/2)  ⇒3a+2b=13 ✓
$${f}\left(\mathrm{2}\right)=−\mathrm{4}\Rightarrow\mathrm{4}−\mathrm{10}+{a}=−\mathrm{4}\Rightarrow{a}=\mathrm{2} \\ $$$${f}\left(\mathrm{1}^{+} \right)\:=\:\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{5}+\mathrm{2}=−\mathrm{2} \\ $$$${f}\left(\mathrm{1}^{−} \right)=\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{1}−{b}}=−\mathrm{2}\Rightarrow{b}=\frac{\mathrm{7}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{3}{a}+\mathrm{2}{b}=\mathrm{13}\:\checkmark\: \\ $$
