MHT-CET Full Test-9 Mathematics Que-5 Solution

Question-5 If f(x)=x^{2}-3 x, then the points at which f(x)=f^{\prime}(x)are

A) 1, 3

B) 1, -3

C) -1, 3

D) None

Answer: D) None

Explanation

Given f(x)=x^{2}-3 x

\Rightarrow f^{\prime}(x)=2 x-3

According to the question, f(x)=f^{\prime}(x)

\Rightarrow x^{2}-3 x=2 x-3 \Rightarrow x^{2}-5 x+3=0 \Rightarrow x=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25-12}}{2}

=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{13}}{2}.

Hence, the solutions are \frac{5+\sqrt{13}}{2} \& \frac{5-\sqrt{13}}{2}.
