Let \(f\) be a function defined by \(f(x)=2 x^3-3 x^2-36 x+2\), then which of the following are correct ?
(A) The critical points of \(f ( x )\) are \(- 2\) and 3 .
(B) The function \(f(x)\) increases in the interval \((3, \infty)\)
(C) The function \(f(x)\) decreases in the interval \((-2,3)\)
(D) The function \(f(x)\) increases in the interval \((-2,3)\)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
- A (B), (C) and (D) only
- B (A), (B) and (C) only
- C (A) and (D) only
- D (A), (C) and (D) only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) (A), (B) and (C) only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(f'(x) = 6x^2 - 6x - 36\) \(f'(x) = 0 \Rightarrow 6x^2 - 6x - 36 = 0 \Rightarrow x^2 - x - 6 = 0 \Rightarrow (x-3)(x+2) = 0\) Critical points: \(x = -2, 3\). (A) is correct. For \((-\infty, -2)\), \(f'(-3) = 6(9) - 6(-3) - 36 = 54 + 18 - 36 = 36 > 0\) (increasing). For…

- Read the given passage and answer the question.
ABO blood groups in human beings are controlled by the gene I. The plasma membrane of the red blood cells has sugar polymers that protrude from its surfaces and the kind of sugar is controlled by the gene. The gene (I) has three alleles IA, IB and I. The alleles IA and IB produce a slightly different form of the sugar while allele i does not produce any sugar. Because humans are diploid organisms, each person possesses any two of the three I gene alleles, IA and IB are completely dominant over I.
