Solution

The correct option is D 12c2
Let h(x)=f(x)f(a)+A(x3a3)

where A is obtained from the relation h(b)=0

h(b)=4+A(b3a3)=0

A=4b3a3

Also,

h(a)=0

h(a)=h(b)=0

Clearly, h(x) is continuous on [a,b] and differentiable in (a,b).

Hence, Rolle's theorem holds for h(x) in [a,b], so there exists c(a,b) such that h(c)=0

f(c)+A(3c2)=0

f(c)=A(3c2)

f(c)=3c2(4b3a3)

(b3a3)f(c)=12c2
