Let \(f\) be a function which is differentiable for all real \(x\). If \(f(2)=-4\) and \(f^{\prime}(x) \geq 6\) for all \(x \in[2,4]\)

  1. A \(f(4) \lt 8\)
  2. B \(f(4) \geq 12\)
  3. C \(f(4) \geq 8\)
  4. D \(f(4) \lt 12\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(f(4) \geq 8\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

By LMVT \(f^{\prime}(x)=\frac{f(4)-f(2)}{4-2}\) as \(f^{\prime}(x) \geq 6 \Rightarrow f(4) \geq 8\)
