MCQ
Let $f :[2,4] \rightarrow R$ be a differentiable function such that $\left(x \log _e x\right) f^{\prime}(x)+\left(\log _e x\right) f(x)+f(x) \geq 1$, $x \in[2,4]$ with $f(2)=\frac{1}{2}$ and $f(4)=\frac{1}{4}$.

Consider the following two statements:

$(A): f(x) \leq 1$, for all $x \in[2,4]$

$(B)$ : $f(x) \geq \frac{1}{8}$, for all $x \in[2,4]$

Then,

  • A
    Only statement $(B)$ is true
  • B
    Neither statement $(A)$ nor statement $(B)$ is true
  • Both the statement $(A)$ and $(B)$ are true
  • D
    Only statement $(A)$ is true

Answer

Correct option: C.
Both the statement $(A)$ and $(B)$ are true
c
$x \operatorname{lnxf} f^{\prime}(x)+\ln x f(x)+f(x) \geq I, x \in[2,4]$

And $f (2)=\frac{1}{2}, f (4)=\frac{1}{4}$

Now $x \ln x \frac{d y}{d x}+(\ln +1) y \geq 1$

$\frac{ d }{ dx }( y \cdot x \ln x ) \geq 1$

$\frac{ d }{ dx }( f ( x ) x \ln x ) \geq 1$

$\Rightarrow \frac{ d }{ dx }( x \ln xf ( x )- x ) \geq 0, x \in[2,4]$

$\Rightarrow \text { The function } g(x)=x \ln x f(x)-x \text { is increasing in }$

$\Rightarrow$ The function $g(x)=x \ln x f(x)-x$ is increasing in $[2.4]$

And $g(2)=2 \ln 2 f(2)-2=\ln 2-2$

$g(4)=4 \ln 4 f(4)-4=\ln 4-4$

$=2(\ln 2-2)$

Now $\quad g (2) \leq g ( x ) \leq g (4)$

$\ln 2-2 \leq x \ln x f(x)-x \leq 2(\ln 2-2)$

$\frac{\ln 2-2}{x \ln x}+\frac{1}{\ln x} \leq f(x) \leq \frac{2(\ln 2-2)}{x \ln x}+\frac{1}{\ln x}$

Now for $x \in[2,4]$

$\frac{2(\ln 2-2)}{ x \ln x}+\frac{1}{\ln x}<\frac{2(\ln 2-2)}{2 \ln 2}+\frac{1}{\ln 2}=1-\frac{1}{\ln 2} < 1$

$\Rightarrow f ( x ) \leq 1 \text { for } x \in[2,4]$

Also for $x \in[2,4]$ :

$\frac{\ln 2-2}{x \ln x}+\frac{1}{\ln x} \geq \frac{\ln 2-2}{4 \ln 4}+\frac{1}{\ln 4}$$=\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{2 \ln 2}>\frac{1}{8}$

$\Rightarrow f(x) \geq \frac{1}{8} \text { for } x \in[2,4]$

Hence both $A$ and $B$ are true.

LMVT on $(yx (lnx))$ not satisfied.

Hence no such function exists.

Therefore it should be bonus.
