Let \(f\) be a function defined on \(R\) (the set of all real numbers) such that \(f^{\prime}(x)=2010(x-2009)\) \((x-2010)^2(x-2011)^3(x-2012)^4\), for all \(x \in R\). If \(g\) is a function defined on \(R\) with values in the interval \((0, \infty)\) such that \(f(x)=\ln (g(x))\), for all \(x \in R\), then the number of points in \(R\) at which \(g\) has a local maximum is

  1. A 9
  2. B 4

  4. D 1
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 1

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(g(x)=e^{f(x)}, \forall x \in R\)
\[
\Rightarrow g^{\prime}(x)=e^{f(x)} \cdot f^{\prime}(x)
\]
\(\Rightarrow f^{\prime}(x)\) changes its sign from positive to negative in the neighbourhood of \(x=2009\)
\(\Rightarrow f(x)\) has local maxima at \(x=2009\)
So, the number of local maximum is one.
