If the integral ∫ x 4 + x 2 + 1 x 2 - x + 1 d x = f x + C , (where C is the constant of integration and x ∈ R ), then the minimum value of f ' x is
Options
- A1
- B1 4
- C3 4
- D2
Correct answer
C. 3 4
Step-by-step solution
As x 4 + x 2 + 1 = x 2 + 1 2 - x 2 = x 2 + 1 + x x 2 + 1 - x Thus, ∫ x 4 + x 2 + 1 x 2 - x + 1 d x = ∫ x 2 + x + 1 d x i.e., f ' x = x 2 + x + 1 = x + 1 2 2 + 3 4 ≥ 3 4
