MCQ
Let $f(x)=x^3-6 x^2+15 x+3$. Then:
  • A
    $f(x) > 0$ for all $\text{x}\in\text{R}.$
  • B
    $f(x) > 0$ for all $\text{x}\in\text{R}.$
  • $f(x)$ is invertible.
  • D
    None of these.

Answer

Correct option: C.
$f(x)$ is invertible.
$f(x)=x^3-6 x^2+15 x+3$
$f^{\prime}(x)=3 x^2-12 x+15$
$=3\left(x^2-4 x+5\right)$
$=3\left(x^2-4 x+4+1\right)$
$=3(\text{x}-2)^2+\frac{1}{3}>0$
Therefore$, f(x)$ is strictly increasing function.
$\Rightarrow f^{-1}(x)$ exists.
Hence$, f(x)$ is an invertible function.
