If f ( x ) = a − ( x − 3 ) 8 / 9 , then the maximum value of f ( x ) is
Options
- A3
- Ba − 3
- Ca
- DNone of these
Correct answer
C. a
Step-by-step solution
∵    f x = a - x - 3 8 / 9 ∴     f   ' x = 0 - 8 9 x - 3 - 1 / 9 At x = 3 , f  ' x is not defined. hence sign scheme of f  ' x is ∴ f x is maximum at x = 3 Hence maximum value of f x is equal to " a "
