Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) (B) and (D) only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\ln f(x) = \frac{\ln x}{x}\) \(\frac{f'(x)}{f(x)} = \frac{\frac{1}{x} \cdot x - \ln x \cdot 1}{x^2} = \frac{1 - \ln x}{x^2}\) \(f'(x) = x^{1/x} \frac{1 - \ln x}{x^2}\) \(f'(x) = 0 \Rightarrow 1 - \ln x = 0 \Rightarrow \ln x = 1 \Rightarrow x = e\) For…
