Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 75

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(f(x) = x^2 + 250x^{-1}\) \(f'(x) = 2x - 250x^{-2}\) \(2x - \frac{250}{x^2} = 0 \Rightarrow 2x^3 = 250 \Rightarrow x^3 = 125 \Rightarrow x = 5\) \(f(5) = 5^2 + \frac{250}{5}\) \(f(5) = 25 + 50 = 75\)
