The maximum value of the function $f(x)=x+\sqrt{1-x}$ in the interval [0, 1] is,
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → $\frac{5}{4}$
$f(x)=x+\sqrt{1-x}$
for max. value $f'(c)=0$ and $f''(c)<0$
Now,
$f'(c)=1-\frac{1}{2\sqrt{1-x}}=0$
$⇒2\sqrt{1-x}=1$
$⇒4(1-x)=1$
$⇒x=\frac{3}{4}$
$∴f(\frac{3}{4})=\frac{3}{4}+\sqrt{1-\frac{3}{4}}=\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{2}$
$=\frac{5}{4}$
