Consider the function $f(x)=x^{\frac{1}{x}}$. Its
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → maximum value is $e^{\frac{1}{e}}$
$f(x)=x^{\frac{1}{x}}⇒x∈(0,∞)$
let,
$y=x^{\frac{1}{x}}⇒\log y=\frac{1}{x}\log x$
$⇒g'(x)=\frac{1-\log x}{x^2}$
and,
$g'(x)=0$
$⇒1-\log x=0$
$⇒x=e$ and, $g''(x)<0$
∴ $f(x=e)=e^{\frac{1}{e}}$ is maximum value of f(x).
