Solution
Given
:
f
x
=
x
+
1
x
⇒
f
'
x
=
1
-
1
x
2
For
a
local
maxima
or
a
local
minima
,
we
must
have
f
'
x
=
0
⇒
1
-
1
x
2
=
0
⇒
x
2
=
1
⇒
x
=
1
,
-
1
But
x
>
0
⇒
x
=
1
Now
,
f
'
'
x
=
1
x
3
At
x
=
1
:
f
'
'
1
=
2
1
3
=
2
>
0
So
,
x
=
1
is
a
point
of
local
minimum
.
Thus
,
the
local
minimum
value
is
given
by
f
1
=
1
+
1
1
=
1
+
1
=
