The function, f(x) = (3x – 7)x2/3, x ∈ R, is increasing for all x lying in :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A (−∞,0)∪(37,∞)
  • B (−∞,0)∪(1415,∞)
  • C (−∞,1415)
  • D (−∞,1415)∪(0,∞)

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

f(x) = (3x – 7)x2/3

f’(x) = (3x−7)23x1/3+x23.3

= 6x−14−9x3x1/3

= 15x−143x1/3

As f(x) increasing so f'(x) > 0

∴ 15x−143x1/3 > 0 JEE Main 2020 (Online) 3rd September Morning Slot Mathematics - Application of Derivatives Question 128 English Explanation
∴ x ∈ (−∞,0)∪(1415,∞)
