The value of \(K\) in order that \(f(x)=\sin x-\cos x-K x+5\) decreases for all positive real values of \(x\) is given by

  1. A \(K < 1\)
  2. B \(K \geq 1\)
  3. C \(K>\sqrt{2}\)
  4. D \(K < \sqrt{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(K>\sqrt{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We have, \(\begin{aligned} f(x) &=\sin x-\cos x-K x+5 \\ \Rightarrow f^{\prime}(x) &=\cos x+\sin x-K \end{aligned}\) For decreasing,…
