Let f(x)=a+(x-4)^ 4 9 , then minima of f(x) is
Options
- A4
- Ba
- Ca-4
- DNone of these
Correct answer
B. a
Step-by-step solution
f(x)=a+(x-4)^ 4 / 9 f^ (x)=0+ 4 9 (x-4)^ -5 / 9 Clearly, at x=4, f^ (x) is not defined Hence, x=4 is the point of extremum. f(4)=a+(4-4)^ 4 / 9 =a The minimum value of f(x) is a .
