The set of critical points of the function $f(x)$ given by $f(x)=x-\log _e x+\int\limits_2^x\left(\frac{1}{t}-2-2 \cos 4 t\right) d t$, is
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
We have,
$f(x)=x-\log _e x+\int\limits_2^x\left(\frac{1}{t}-2-2 \cos 4 t\right) d t$
$\Rightarrow f'(x)=1-\frac{1}{x}+\left(\frac{1}{x}-2-2 \cos 4 x\right)$
$\Rightarrow f'(x)=-1-2 \cos 4 x$
Now,
$f'(x)=0$
$\Rightarrow \cos 4 x=-\frac{1}{2}=\cos \frac{2 \pi}{3}$
$\Rightarrow 4 x=2 n \pi \pm \frac{2 \pi}{3}, n \in Z \Rightarrow x=\frac{n \pi}{2} \pm \frac{\pi}{6}, n \in Z$
But, f(x) is defined for x > 0. Therefore,
$f'(x)=0 \Rightarrow x=\frac{n \pi}{2}+\frac{\pi}{6}, n \in N, x=\frac{\pi}{6}$
Hence, the set of critical points of f(x) is
$\left\{\frac{n \pi}{2}+\frac{\pi}{6}: n=0,1,2,...\right\}$
