MCQ
The interval in which the function ${x^2}{e^{ - x}}$ is non decreasing, is
  • A
    $( - \infty ,\,\,2]$
  • $[0, 2]$
  • C
    $[2,\,\,\infty )$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$[0, 2]$
b
(b) Let $y = f(x) = {x^2}{e^{ - x}}$

==> $\frac{{dy}}{{dx}} = 2x{e^{ - x}} - {x^2}{e^{ - x}} = {e^{ - x}}(2x - {x^2})$

Hence $f'(x) \ge 0$ for every $x \in [0,\,2]$

therefore it is non-decreasing in $ [0,2].$

Two fair dice, each with faces numbered $1,2,3,4,5$ and $6$ , are rolled together and the sum of the numbers on the faces is observed. This process is repeated till the sum is either a prime number or a perfect square. Suppose the sum turns out to be a perfect square before it turns out to be a prime number. If $p$ is the probability that this perfect square is an odd number, then the value of $14 p$ is. . . . .
