Correct answer
34
Step-by-step explanation
is continuous and differentiable
$\begin{aligned}
& \text { at } x=1, \mathrm{LHL}=\mathrm{RHL}, \mathrm{LHD}=\mathrm{RHD} \\
& -3 a-2=a^2+b,-6 a=b \\
& a=2 ; b=-12 \\
& f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}
-6 x^2-2, & x < 1 \\
4-12 x, & x \geq 1
\end{array}\right.
\end{aligned}$
