Paragraph:

Let \(f:[0,1] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}\) (the set of all real numbers) be a function. Suppose the function \(f\) is twice differentiable, \(f(0)=f(1)=0\) and satisfies \(f^{\prime \prime}(x)-2 f^{\prime}(x)+f(x) \geq e^{x}, x \in[0,1] .\)


Question:

If the function \(\mathrm{e}^{-x} f(x)\) assumes its minimum in the interval \([0,1]\) at \(x=\frac{1}{4}\), which of the following is true?

  1. A f x < f x , 1 4 < x < 3 4
  2. B f x > f x , 0 < x < 1 4
  3. C f x < f x , 0 < x < 1 4
  4. D f x < f x , 3 4 < x < 1
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) f x < f x , 0 < x < 1 4

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

ϕ x < 0 x 0 1 / 4 and ϕ x > 0 x 1 / 4 1  ⇒  e - x f x - e - x f x < 0 x 0 1 / 4
f x < f x 0 < x < 1 / 4
