Question: If f(x) = cos \(\left( \frac{\pi}{2}\lbrack x\rbrack - x^{3} \right)\), 1 \< x \< 2 where [.] is the...
If f(x) = cos (2π[x]−x3), 1 < x < 2 where [.] is the greatest integer then f ′(3π/2) is
A
0
B
1
C
½
D
1/2
Answer
0
Explanation
Solution
Q 1 < x < 2 ⇒ [x] = 1 ⇒ f(x) = cos (π/2 –x3)
f ′(x) = – sin (π/2– x3) . (–3x2)
f ′ ((π/2)1/3) = 0
