Let f : R → R be a continuous function defined by f(x) = 
Statement -1 : f(c) =
, for some c ∈ R.
Statement -2 : 0 < f(x) ≤
, for all x ∈ R.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
e x + 2e –x ≥ 2
(AM ≥ GM)
≤ 
≥ f(x) > 0 so statement- 2 is correct
As f(x) is continuous and
belongs to range
of f(x),
⇒ f(c) =
for some C.
Hence correction option is .
