Find the maximum value of \(f(x)=\dfrac{1}{4 x^{2}+2 x+1}\).
- A \(\dfrac{3}{4}\)
- B \(\dfrac{4}{3}\)
- C \(\dfrac{1}{3}\)
- D None of these
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\dfrac{4}{3}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
To find the maximum value of \(f(x) = \dfrac{1}{4x^{2} + 2x + 1}\), we need to find the minimum value of the denominator \(g(x) = 4x^{2} + 2x + 1\). The expression \(g(x) = 4x^{2} + 2x + 1\) is a quadratic in the form \(ax^{2} + bx + c\) where \(a = 4\), \(b = 2\), and…
