Correct answer: D

  1. Differentiate both functions

Given f(x)=2x+tan⁡−1x,f(x)=2x+\tan^{-1}x,f(x)=2x+tan−1x, so f′(x)=2+11+x2.f'(x)=2+\frac{1}{1+x^2}.f′(x)=2+1+x21​.

Also, g(x)=ln⁡(1+x2+x).g(x)=\ln\big(\sqrt{1+x^2}+x\big).g(x)=ln(1+x2​+x). This is a standard form: ln⁡(x+1+x2)=sinh⁡−1x,\ln\big(x+\sqrt{1+x^2}\big)=\sinh^{-1}x,ln(x+1+x2​)=sinh−1x, therefore g′(x)=11+x2.g'(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+x^2}}.g′(x)=1+x2​1​.


  1. Check option A

We need to see whether there exists x^∈[0,3]\hat x\in[0,3]x^∈[0,3] such that f′(x^)<g′(x^).f'(\hat x)<g'(\hat x).f′(x^)<g′(x^).

Now for x∈[0,3]x\in[0,3]x∈[0,3], f′(x)=2+11+x2>2,f'(x)=2+\frac{1}{1+x^2}>2,f′(x)=2+1+x21​>2, while g′(x)=11+x2≤1.g'(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+x^2}}\le 1.g′(x)=1+x2​1​≤1. Hence for all x∈[0,3]x\in[0,3]x∈[0,3], f′(x)>g′(x).f'(x)>g'(x).f′(x)>g′(x). So such x^\hat xx^ does not exist.

Therefore, A is false.


  1. Check option B

We test whether there exist 0<x1<x2<30<x_1<x_2<30<x1​<x2​<3 such that f(x)<g(x)∀x∈(x1,x2).f(x)<g(x)\quad \forall x\in(x_1,x_2).f(x)<g(x)∀x∈(x1​,x2​).

Consider h(x)=f(x)−g(x).h(x)=f(x)-g(x).h(x)=f(x)−g(x). Then h′(x)=f′(x)−g′(x)=2+11+x2−11+x2.h'(x)=f'(x)-g'(x)=2+\frac{1}{1+x^2}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+x^2}}.h′(x)=f′(x)−g′(x)=2+1+x21​−1+x2​1​.

Let t=1+x2≥1t=\sqrt{1+x^2}\ge 1t=1+x2​≥1. Then 11+x2=1t2,\frac{1}{1+x^2}=\frac{1}{t^2},1+x21​=t21​, so h′(x)=2+1t2−1t.h'(x)=2+\frac{1}{t^2}-\frac{1}{t}.h′(x)=2+t21​−t1​. Since t≥1t\ge 1t≥1, 2+1t2−1t>0.2+\frac{1}{t^2}-\frac{1}{t}>0.2+t21​−t1​>0. Hence h′(x)>0h'(x)>0h′(x)>0 for all x∈[0,3]x\in[0,3]x∈[0,3], so hhh is strictly increasing.

Now h(0)=f(0)−g(0)=0−ln⁡1=0.h(0)=f(0)-g(0)=0-\ln 1=0.h(0)=f(0)−g(0)=0−ln1=0. Since hhh is increasing and h(0)=0h(0)=0h(0)=0, h(x)>0∀x>0.h(x)>0\quad \forall x>0.h(x)>0∀x>0. Thus f(x)>g(x)∀x∈(0,3].f(x)>g(x)\quad \forall x\in(0,3].f(x)>g(x)∀x∈(0,3]. So there cannot be any interval where f(x)<g(x)f(x)<g(x)f(x)<g(x).

Therefore, B is false.


  1. Check option C

We compute min⁡f′(x)\min f'(x)minf′(x) and max⁡g′(x)\max g'(x)maxg′(x) on [0,3][0,3][0,3].

For f′(x)f'(x)f′(x):

f′(x)=2+11+x2.f'(x)=2+\frac{1}{1+x^2}.f′(x)=2+1+x21​. Since 11+x2\frac{1}{1+x^2}1+x21​ decreases on [0,3][0,3][0,3], f′(x)f'(x)f′(x) decreases. Thus min⁡f′(x)=f′(3)=2+110=2110.\min f'(x)=f'(3)=2+\frac{1}{10}=\frac{21}{10}.minf′(x)=f′(3)=2+101​=1021​.

For g′(x)g'(x)g′(x):

g′(x)=11+x2,g'(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+x^2}},g′(x)=1+x2​1​, which also decreases on [0,3][0,3][0,3]. Thus max⁡g′(x)=g′(0)=1.\max g'(x)=g'(0)=1.maxg′(x)=g′(0)=1.

Then 1+max⁡g′(x)=1+1=2.1+\max g'(x)=1+1=2.1+maxg′(x)=1+1=2. But min⁡f′(x)=2110≠2.\min f'(x)=\frac{21}{10}\ne 2.minf′(x)=1021​=2. So the statement is false.

Therefore, C is false.


  1. Check option D

Since f′(x)>0andg′(x)>0f'(x)>0 \quad \text{and} \quad g'(x)>0f′(x)>0andg′(x)>0 for all x∈[0,3]x\in[0,3]x∈[0,3], both functions are increasing on [0,3][0,3][0,3]. Therefore, max⁡f(x)=f(3),max⁡g(x)=g(3).\max f(x)=f(3), \qquad \max g(x)=g(3).maxf(x)=f(3),maxg(x)=g(3).

Now f(3)=2⋅3+tan⁡−13=6+tan⁡−13.f(3)=2\cdot 3+\tan^{-1}3=6+\tan^{-1}3.f(3)=2⋅3+tan−13=6+tan−13. Also g(3)=ln⁡(10+3).g(3)=\ln(\sqrt{10}+3).g(3)=ln(10​+3).

Numerically, tan⁡−13≈1.249,\tan^{-1}3\approx 1.249,tan−13≈1.249, so f(3)≈7.249.f(3)\approx 7.249.f(3)≈7.249. And 10+3≈6.162,\sqrt{10}+3\approx 6.162,10​+3≈6.162, so g(3)=ln⁡(6.162)≈1.818.g(3)=\ln(6.162)\approx 1.818.g(3)=ln(6.162)≈1.818. Hence max⁡f(x)>max⁡g(x).\max f(x) > \max g(x).maxf(x)>maxg(x).

Therefore, D is true.


  1. Final conclusion

Only option D is correct.
