MCQ
In the interval $(0, 1)$ maximum value of the function $f (x) = |x\ ln\ x|$ is 
  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $1$
  • C
    $e$
  • $e^{-1}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$e^{-1}$
d
$f(x)=-x \ln x$

$f^{\prime}(x)=-1-\ln x$

$\therefore f'(x) > 0{\rm{ if }}x \in (0,1/c)$

$f^{\prime}(x)=0 \text { if } x=1 / e$

$f^{\prime}(x)<0 \text { if } x>1 / e$

$f(1 / e)=e^{-1}$

${\rm{ \,and\, }}\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to {0^ + }} f(x) - 0{\rm{ \,and\, }}\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to {1^ - }} f(x) = 0$
