The minimum value of f x = x + 4 x + 2 is
Options
- A- 1
- B- 2
- C1
- D2
Correct answer
D. 2
Step-by-step solution
f x = x + 4 x + 2 For minima, f ' x = 0 1 - 4 x + 2 2 = 0 x + 2 2 = 4 ⇒ x + 2 = ± 2 ⇒ x = 0 , - 4 f " x = 8 x + 2 - 3 At x = 0 ,   f x will have minima. i.e. the minimum value f 0 = 2
