Function f(x)= -2 is monotonic decreasing when: - Vidyadip

MCQ

Function $\text{f}(\text{x})=\cos\text{x}-2\lambda\text{x}$ is monotonic decreasing when:

A
$\lambda>\frac{1}{2}$
B
$\lambda<\frac{1}{2}$
✓
$\lambda<2$
D
$\lambda>2$

✓

Answer

Correct option: C.

$\lambda<2$

$\text{f}(\text{x})=\cos\text{x}-2\lambda\text{x}$
$\text{f}'(\text{x})=-\sin\text{x}-2\lambda$
For f(x) to be decreasing, we must have
$\text{f}'(\text{x})<0$
$\Rightarrow-\sin\text{x}-2\lambda<0$
$\Rightarrow\sin\text{x}+2\lambda>0$
$\Rightarrow2\lambda>-\sin\text{x}$
We know that the maximum value of $-\sin\text{x}$ is 1.
$\Rightarrow2\lambda>1$
$\Rightarrow\lambda>\frac{1}{2}$
