The given functions are

g(x) = logex, x > 0 and f(x) = 2+x cos x

Let I = ∫ −π/4
g(f(x))dx
π/4 2−x cos x
Then, I = ∫ −π/4
loge (
2+x cos x
)dx ...(i)
Now, by using the property

∫ f(x)dx = ∫ f(a + b - x)dx, we get

I = ∫

(c) f'(e) - f"(2) < 0
Explanation:
Given function is, f(x) = 4 loge (x - 1) -2x2 + 4x + 5, x > 1
Differentiate w.r.t ‘x'.
′
f (x) =
x−1
4
− 4(x − 1) ...(i)
Now, check option wise
Take 1 < x < 2 ⇒ f'(x) > 0
Take x > 2 ⇒ f'(x) < 0

3/5
1
 So, option f is increasing in (1, 2) and decreasing in (2, ∞ ) is correct.
Take f(x) = -1
We have
loge (x - 1)2 = (x - 3) ( x + 1)
Therefore, it has two solutions
Take f(e) > 0, f(e + 1) < 0
f(e) ⋅ f(e + 1) < 0
So, option f(x) = 0 has a root in the interval (e, e + 1) is correct.
Now, put x = e in eq. (i) and again diff. eq. (i).
′ ′′ 4
f (e) − f (2) = − 4(e − 1) + 8 > 0
e−1

Therefore, option f'(e) - f"(2) < 0 is incorrect.

∣ −α 1 2 ∣

= (6 + 1) - 2(2α - α ) + 1 (α + 3α) = 0
= 7 - 2α + 4α = 0 = 7 + 2α = 0

So, α = − 2

For inconsistent solution, atleast one of Δ , Δ , Δ not equal to 0. 1 2 3

Then Δ = ∣ 1 α 3 −1
