Let f be any function defined on R and let it satisfy the condition: f x - f y ≤ x - y 2 , ∀ x , y ∈ R . If f 0 = 1 , then :
Options
- Af x = 0 , ∀ x ∈ R
- Bf x can take any value in R
- Cf x < 0 , ∀ x ∈ R
- Df x > 0 , ∀ x ∈ R
Correct answer
D. f x > 0 , ∀ x ∈ R
Step-by-step solution
f x - f y x - y ≤ x - y Let x - y = h ⇒ x = y + h lim x → 0 f y + h - f y h ≤ 0 ⇒ f ' y ≤ 0 ⇒ f ' y = 0 ⇒ f y = k (constant) And f 0 = 1 given So, f y = 1 ⇒ f x = 1
