If \(y=f(x)\) is continuous on the interval \([a, b]\) max \(y\) occurs at a point \(c\), and \(f^{\prime}(c) \neq 0, f^{\prime}(c)\) exists than :

  1. A \(c\) is equal to a but not \(b\)
  2. B \(c\) is equal to \(b\) but not a
  3. C \(c\) is equal to \(a\) or \(b\)
  4. D \(c\) is equal to mid value of \(a\) and \(b\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(c\) is equal to \(a\) or \(b\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(c\) must be an endpoint since \(f^{\prime}(c) \neq 0\) for a maximum. \(c = a\) or \(c = b\)
