Reason: For x<0, |x|=-x

  1. A Assertion is false but Reason is true.
  2. B Assertion is true but Reason is false.
  3. C Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
  4. D Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) Assertion is false but Reason is true.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Note: Assuming base of logarithm as e. Given Assertion: for x<0, d2dx2log|x|=1|x|2 Reason: for x<0, |x|=-x So, let f(x)=log(|x|) For x<0 y=f(x)=log(-x) Now, dydx=1(-x)-1=1x d2ydx=-1x2 So, Assertion is wrong but reason is true.
