JEE Main 2022 · 25 Jul · Shift 2, Mathematics question 24

The sum of the maximum and minimum values of the function f(x)=∣5x−7∣+[x2+2x]f(x)=|5x-7|+\left[x^2+2x\right] in the interval [54,2]\left[\dfrac54,2\right], where [t][t] is the greatest integer ≤t\le t, is ______.

Answer and worked solution

Official answer: 15

On [54,2]\left[\frac54,2\right] x2+2xx^2+2x runs from 6516\frac{65}{16} to 8. Maximum at x=2x=2: 3+8=113+8=11. Minimum near x=75x=\frac75: 0+4=40+4=4 (the floor is 4 there).

Sum 15.

Answer: 15
