QJEEM22Ma7f83: JEE Main 2022 Mathematics - Class 12 JEEM22Ma7f83 Solution: If the minimum value of , is 14 , then the value of is equal to :

If the minimum value of f(x)=\frac{5 x^{2}}{2}+\frac{\alpha}{x^{5}}, x>0 , is 14 , then the value of α\alpha is equal to :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 32
  • B 64
  • C 128
  • D 256

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

f(x) = {{5{x^2}} \over 2} + {\alpha \over {{x^5}}}\,\,\{ x > 0\}

f′(x)=5x−5αx6=0f'(x) = 5x - {{5\alpha } \over {{x^6}}} = 0

⇒x=(α)17\Rightarrow x = {(\alpha )^{{1 \over 7}}}

f(x)min⁡=5(α)272+αα57=14f{(x)_{\min }} = {{5{{(\alpha )}^{{2 \over 7}}}} \over 2} + {\alpha \over {{\alpha ^{{5 \over 7}}}}} = 14

52α27+α27=14{5 \over 2}{\alpha ^{{2 \over 7}}} + {\alpha ^{{2 \over 7}}} = 14

72α27=14{7 \over 2}{\alpha ^{{2 \over 7}}} = 14

α=128\alpha = 128
