The Rolle's theorem is applicable in the interval \(-1 \leq \mathrm{x} \leq 1\) for the function

  1. A \(f(x)=x\)
  2. B \(f(x)=x^2\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=2 \mathrm{x}^3+3\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=|\mathrm{x}|\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(f(x)=x^2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Hints : \(f(x)=x^2 \mid\) and \(\mathrm{f}(1)=\mathrm{f}(-1)\) for \(\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=|\mathrm{x}|\) but at \(\mathrm{x}=0, \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})=|\mathrm{x}|\) is not differentiable hence (2) is the correct option. \[ f(1)=1=f(-1) \]
