f(x)=[x] for x[2,2]

f(x)=x21 for x[1,2]

113. Solution:

By Rolle's Theorem, for a function f[a,b]R, if

f is continuous on [a,b]

f is differentiable on (a,b)

f(a)= f(b)

then, there exists some c(a,b) such that f'(c)=0

therefore, Rolle's Theorem is not applicable to those functions that do not satisfy any of the three conditions of the hypothesis.

f(x)=[x] for x[5,9]

It is evident that the giv

f (x) is an even function

f ( 1 4 ) = f ( 1 2 ) = f ( 1 2 ) = f ( 1 4 ) = 0  

So, f (x) has at least four roots in (-2, 2)

g ( 3 4 ) = g ( 3 4 ) = 0         

So, g (x) has at least two roots in (-2, 2)

now number of roots of f (x) g " ( x ) = f ' ( x ) g ' ( x ) = 0  

It is same as number of roots of d d x ( f ( x ) g ' ( x ) ) = 0 will have atleast 4 roots in (-2, 2)

f ( x ) = x + x 0 1 f ( t ) d t 0 1 t 0 f ( t ) d t

Let 1 + 0 1 f ( t ) d t = α

0 1 t f ( t ) d t = β

So, f(x) = x

Now, α = 0 1 f ( t ) d t + 1

α = 0 1 ( a t β ) d t + 1

β = 0 1 t f ( t ) d t

β = 4 1 3 , α = 1 8 1 3

f(x) = αx – b

= 1 8 x 4 1 3

option (D) satisfies

f (x) = f (6 – x) Þ f' (x) = -f' (6 – x) …. (1)

put x = 0, 2, 5

f' (0) = f' (6) = f' (2) = f' (4) = f' (5) = f' (1) = 0

and from equation (1) we get f' (3) = -f' (3)

? f ' ( 3 ) = 0

So f' (x) = 0 has minimum 7 roots in x ? [ 0 , 6 ] ? f ' ' ( x )  has min 6 roots in   x ? [ 0 , 6 ]

h (x) = f' (x) . f' (x)

h' (x) = (f' (x)2 + f' (x) f' (x)

Differentiate
4x³ - 5x? = a? + 2a? (1+x) + 3a? (1+x)².
12x² - 20x³ = 2a? + 6a? (1+x).
Put x = -1
