JEE Main 2024 · 9 Apr · Shift 2 · Maximum and Minimum Values

Let the range of the function f(x)=12+sin⁡3x+cos⁡3x,x∈Rf(x)=\frac{1}{2+\sin 3 x+\cos 3 x}, x \in \mathbb{R} be [a,b][a, b]. If α\alpha and β\beta ar respectively the A.M. and the G.M. of aa and bb, then αβ\frac{\alpha}{\beta} is equal to

  1. (A)π\pi
  2. (B)π\sqrt{\pi}
  3. (C)2\sqrt{2}
  4. (D)2

Answer: (C)

Step-by-step solution

JEE Main 2024 · 29 Jan · Shift 1 · Multiple and Sub-Multiple Angles

Consider the function f:[12,1]→Rf:\left[\frac{1}{2}, 1\right] \rightarrow \mathbb{R} defined by f(x)=42x3−32x−1f(x)=4 \sqrt{2} x^3-3 \sqrt{2} x-1. Consider the statements

(I) The curve y=f(x)y=f(x) intersects the xx-axis exactly at one point.

(II) The curve y=f(x)y=f(x) intersects the xx-axis at x=cos⁡π12x=\cos \frac{\pi}{12}.

Then

  1. (A)Both (I) and (II) are correct.
  2. (B)Only (I) is correct.
  3. (C)Both (I) and (II) are incorrect.
  4. (D)Only (II) is correct.
