Paragraph: Given that m( )= ^2 +n^2 ^2 +2 n , where n is a fixed positive real number. Question: Under what condition does m attain the least value?
Options
- An= ^2
- Bn= ^2
- Cn= ^2
- Dn= ^2
Correct answer
B. n= ^2
Step-by-step solution
For minimum value, ^2 +n^2 ^2 +2 n=4 n( )^2+(n )^2-2( n )=0( -n )^2=0 =n ^2 =n
