Let \(f:[1,3] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}\) be continuous and be derivable in \((1,3)\) and \(f^{\prime}(x)=[f(x)]^2+4 \forall x \in(1,3)\). Then

  1. A \(f(3)-f(1)=5\) holds
  2. B \(f(3)-f(1)=5\) does not hold
  3. C \(f(3)-f(1)=3\) holds
  4. D \(f(3)-f(1)=4\) holds
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(f(3)-f(1)=5\) does not hold

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & \text { Hint : } f^{\prime}(c)=(f(c))^2+4=\frac{f(3)-f(1)}{2} \\ & \Rightarrow f(3)-f(1)=2(f(c))^2+8 \end{aligned}\)
