MCQ
if $\text{ax}+\frac{\text{b}}{\text{x}}\geq\text{c}$ for all positive $x$ where $a, b, > 0,$ then.
  • A
    $\text{ab} < \frac{\text{c}^{2}}{4}$
  • $\text{ab} > \frac{\text{c}^{2}}{4}$
  • C
    $\text{ab} > \frac{\text{c}}{4}$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\text{ab} > \frac{\text{c}^{2}}{4}$
$=\text{f}(\text{x})=\text{ax}+\frac{\text{b}}{\text{x}}$
$\text{f}(\text{x})=0$
$\Rightarrow \text{a}-\frac{\text{b}}{\text{x}^{2}}=0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\pm\sqrt{\frac{\text{b}}{\text{a}}}$
$\text{f}\ ''(\text{x})=\frac{2\text{b}}{\text{x}^{3}}$
$\text{f}\ ''\Big(\sqrt{\frac{\text{b}}{\text{a}}}\Big)=\frac{2\text{b}}{\Big(\sqrt{\frac{\text{b}}{\text{c}}}\Big)^{3}}>0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\sqrt{\frac{\text{b}}{\text{a}}}$ has a minima.
$\text{f}\ ''\Big(\sqrt{\frac{\text{b}}{\text{a}}}\Big)=2\sqrt{\text{ab}}\geq\text{c}$
$\frac{\text{c}}{2}\le\sqrt{\text{ab}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{c}}{4}\le{\text{ab}}$
