digit below the question no. in the ORS is to be bubbled.
26. Let f be a function defined on R (the set of all real numbers) such that
f '(x) = 2010 (x – 2009) (x – 2010)2 (x – 2011)3 (x – 2012)4, for all x ∈ R.
If g is a function defined on R with values in the interval (0, ∞) such that f(x) = ln (g(x)), for all x ∈ R, then the
number of points in R at which g has a local maximum is
Answer (1)
f (x )
Hints : g ( x ) = e , ∀x ∈R
f (x)
⇒ g '( x ) = e .f ' ( x )
⇒ f′(x) changes its sign from positive to negative in the neighbourhood of x = 2009
⇒ f(x) has local maxima at x = 2009
So, the number of local maximum is one.
