The minimum value of $xlog_ex$ is equal to
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is option (3) → $-\frac{1}{e}$
$y=x\log x$
so $y'=\log x+1=0⇒x=\frac{1}{e}$
$y''=\frac{1}{x}$ so $(y''(\frac{1}{e})=e)>0$
$\frac{1}{e}$ → point of minima
so $y_{min}=y(\frac{1}{e})=-\frac{1}{e}$
