The function 
satisfies all the conditions of mean value theorem in [3, 4]. A point on 
, where the tangent is parallel to the chord joining (3, 0) and (4, 1) is
A
B
C
(1, 4)
D
(4, 1)
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Let the point be 
Therefore 
…..(i)
Now slope of the tangent at 
is 
but it is equal to 1. Therefore, 
. Hence the point is 
.
