Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(15\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( f(x) =|5 x-7|+\left[x^{2}+2 x\right] \) \(=|5 x-7|+\left[(x+1)^{2}\right]-1 \) Critical points of \(f(x)=\frac{7}{5}, \sqrt{5}-1, \sqrt{6}-1, \sqrt{7}-1, \sqrt{8}-1,2\) Maximum or minimum value of \(f(x)\) occur at critical points or boundary points…
