Let (f ) be a polynomial function defined on ([2,7] ). If (f(2)=3 ) and (f^ (x) 5 ) for all (x ) in ((2,7) ), then the maximum possible value attained by (f ) at (x=7 ) is
Options
- A7
- B14
- C18
- D28
Correct answer
D. 28
Step-by-step solution
Since, the polynomial function are continuous and differentiable in interval (R ). So, according to Lagranage's mean value theorem ( aligned & f(7)-f(2) 7-2 =f^ (x) 5 (given) & f(7)-f(2) 25 f(7) 28 aligned ) Hence, option (d) is correct.
