Let g : R → R be a non constant twice differentiable such that g ' 1 2 = g ' 3 2 . If a real valued function f is defined as f ( x ) = 1 2 [ g ( x ) + g ( 2 - x ) ] , then
Options
- Af " ( x ) = 0 for atleast two x in ( 0 , 2 )
- Bf " ( x ) = 0 for exactly one x in ( 0 , 1 )
- Cf " ( x ) = 0 for no x in ( 0 , 1 )
- Df ' 3 2 + f ' 1 2 = 1
Correct answer
A. f " ( x ) = 0 for atleast two x in ( 0 , 2 )
Step-by-step solution
Given: f x = 1 2 g x + g 2 - x ⇒ f ' x = 1 2 g ' x - g ' 2 - x ⇒ f ' 1 2 = 1 2 g ' 1 2 - g ' 3 2 ⇒ f ' 1 2 = 0 Also, f ' 3 2 = 1 2 g ' 3 2 - g ' 1 2 ⇒ f ' 3 2 = 0 Now, f ' 1 = 1 2 g ' 1 - g ' 1 ⇒ f ' 1 = 0 So, f ' x has three roots and thus f " x will have atleast two roots in 0 , 2
