Let g ( x ) = 3 f x 3 + f ( 3 - x ) and f " ( x ) > 0 for all x ∈ ( 0 , 3 ) . If g is decreasing in ( 0 ,…

Let g(x)=3fx3+f(3-x) and f"(x)>0 for all x(0,3). If g is decreasing in (0,α) and increasing in (α,3), then 8α is
  1. 24
  2. 0
  3. 18
  4. 20

Solution

Given: g(x)=3fx3+f(3-x) and f"(x)>0x(0,3)

f'(x) is increasing function

g'(x)=3×13·f'x3-f'(3-x)

g'(x)=f'x3-f'(3-x)

It is given that g is decreasing in 0, α then g'(x)<0.

f'x3-f'(3-x)<0

f'x3<f'(3-x)

x3<3-x

x<9-3x

x<94

α=94

8α=8×94

8α=18
