The value of b for which the function \(f(x) = \sin x - bx + C\), where b and C are constants is decreasing for \(x \in R\) is given by

  1. A \(b < 1\)
  2. B \(b \ge 0\)
  3. C \(b > 1\)
  4. D \(b \le 1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(b > 1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(f'(x) = \cos x - b\) For \(f(x)\) to be decreasing, \(f'(x) \le 0\) for all \(x \in R\). \(\cos x - b \le 0 \implies \cos x \le b\) Since \(\max(\cos x) = 1\), for \(\cos x \le b\) to hold for all \(x\), we must have \(b \ge 1\). Considering the given options, the only option…
