JEE PYQ: Application Of Derivatives Question 34

Question 34 - 2020 (04 Sep Shift 1)

Let $f$ be a twice differentiable function on $(1, 6)$. If $f(2) = 8$, $f’(2) = 5$, $f’(x) \ge 1$ and $f’’(x) \ge 4$ for all $x \in (1, 6)$, then:

(1) $f(5) + f’(5) \le 26$

(2) $f(5) + f’(5) \ge 28$

(3) $f’(5) + f’’(5) \le 20$

(4) $f(5) \le 10$

Show Answer

Answer: (2)

Solution

By LMVT: $\frac{f(5) - f(2)}{3} \ge 1 \Rightarrow f(5) \ge 11$. Also $\frac{f’(5) - f’(2)}{3} \ge 4 \Rightarrow f’(5) \ge 17$. Hence $f(5) + f’(5) \ge 28$.
