Let a 0 . If the function f ( x )=6 x ^3-45 a x ^2+108 a ^2 x +1 attains its local maximum and minimum values at the points x₁ and x₂ respectively such that x₁ x₂=54 , then a + x ₁+ x ₂ is equal to :-
Options
- A15
- B18
- C24
- D13
Correct answer
B. 18
Step-by-step solution
aligned & f^ (x)=18 x^2-90 a x+108 a^2=0 & x=2 a & x=3 a & x₁=2 a x₂=3 a & x₁ x₂=54 & 6 a^2=54 & a=3 & a+x₁+x₂ & 3+2 3+3 3=18 & option (2) aligned
