NDA Math Mock Test 03 – Question 87

Question:

If \(x\) be real, then the maximum value of \(5 + 4x – 4x^2\) will be equal to:

यदि \(x\) वास्तविक है, तो \(5 + 4x – 4x^2\) का अधिकतम मान किसके बराबर होगा?

Options:

  • 5
  • 6
  • 1
  • 2
  • 5
  • 6
  • 1
  • 2

Correct Answer: b)

Explanation:

Completing the square:
\[5 + 4x – 4x^2 = 5 – (4x^2 – 4x) = 5 – [ (2x – 1)^2 – 1 ] = 5 – (2x – 1)^2 + 1 = 6 – (2x – 1)^2\]
Since \((2x – 1)^2 \ge 0\) for all real \(x\), the maximum value occurs when \(2x – 1 = 0 \implies x = 1/2\).
The maximum value is:
\[6 – 0 = 6\]
Hence, the correct option is (b).

\[5 + 4x – 4x^2 = 6 – (2x – 1)^2\]
चूँकि \((2x – 1)^2 \ge 0\) है, अतः अधिकतम मान \(2x – 1 = 0\) (अर्थात् \(x = 1/2\)) पर प्राप्त होगा:
\[\text{अधिकतम मान} = 6\]
अतः सही विकल्प (b) है।
