Solution
The correct option is A16 f(x)=x1+4x+x2 ⇒f′(x)=(x2+4x+1)⋅1−x(2x+4)(1+4x+x2)2 ⇒f′(x)=−(x2−1)(1+4x+x2)2 ⇒f′(x)=−(x+1)(x−1)(1+4x+x2)2
From f′(x)=0⇒x=−1,+1
Since, sign of f′(x) changes from positive to negative as x crosses 1 from left to right, therefore x=1 is a point of local maxima.
therefore f(x) has local maximum value at x=1, ⇒f(1)=11+4+1=16
