Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{11}{3}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\because f^{\prime}(x)=3 p x^2+2 q x+r\) ...(i) Since, \(f(x)\) attain local minimum and maximum at \(x=-2\) and \(x=2\) respectively. \(\therefore f^{\prime}(x)=k(x+2)(x-2)=k\left(x^2-4\right)\) ...(ii) From (i) and (ii)…
