The set of all values of a for which the function does not possess critical points is
Options
- A
- B(0,1)
- C(-2,4)
- D(1,3)
Correct answer
B. (0,1)
Step-by-step solution
(f(x)=\left(a^{2}=-3 a+2\right)\left(\cos ^{2}x / 4-\sin ^{2} x / 4\right)+(a-1) x+\sin 1)
(\Rightarrow\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=(\mathrm{a}-\mathrm{a}-\mathrm{x}\mathrm{a}-\mathrm{x}+\sin\mathrm{x})=-\frac{1}{2}(\mathrm{a}-\mathrm{a}-\frac{\mathrm{x}}{2}+(\mathrm{a}-\mathrm{x})=(\mathrm{a}-1)\left[1-\frac{(\mathrm{a}-2)}{2} \sin \frac{\mathrm{x}}{2}\right])
If does not possess critical points, then (f^{\prime}(x)) = 0 for any (x \in R)
(\Rightarrow(a-1)\left[1-\frac{(a-2)}{2} \sin \frac{x}{2}\right]) = 0 for any (x \in R)
(\Rightarrow 1) and (1-\left(\frac{\mathrm{a}-2}{2}\right) \sin \frac{\mathrm{x}}{2}=\mathrm{R}\mathrm{a}=\frac{\mathrm{x}}{2}=\frac{2}{\mathrm{a}-2}\mathrm{R}\mathrm{a} =1\left[\right.\mathrm{a}=\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=\mathrm{x}+\sin\mathrm{x})=\mathrm{a}=\mathrm{a}\lt\mathrm{a} \in(0,1) \cup(1,4)).
