Let be the largest value of for which the function is increasing for all x R. Then is equal to :
- A36
- B48
- C64
- D72

Correct answer: D
-
For the function to be increasing for all , we need
-
Differentiate: Factor out :
-
So we require
-
This is a quadratic in . For it to be non-negative for all real , two conditions are needed:
- coefficient of must be positive or zero,
- discriminant must be .
Here coefficient of is , so we need
Discriminant: For non-negativity for all , Since , this gives
\implies \lambda(3\lambda-1)\le 0 \implies 0\le \lambda\le \frac13.$$ -
Therefore, the largest such value is
-
Now compute :
=\frac{4}{3}x^3-12x^2+36x+48.$$ -
Evaluate at : f_{1/3}(1)=\frac43-12+36+48=rac43+72=rac{220}{3}.
-
Evaluate at :
-
Add them: f_{1/3}(1)+f_{1/3}(-1)=\frac{220}{3}-\frac{4}{3}=rac{216}{3}=72.
-
Hence the correct option is
