JEE Main 2022 · 28 Jul · Shift 1, Mathematics question 20

The minimum value of the twice differentiable function f(x)=∫0xex−tf′(t) dt−(x2−x+1)exf(x)=\displaystyle\int_0^xe^{x-t}f'(t)\,dt-\left(x^2-x+1\right)e^x, x∈Rx\in\mathbf R, is :

Choose one option
Answer and worked solution

Official answer: A

Differentiate. Writing F(x)=ex∫0xe−tf′(t)dtF(x)=e^x\int_0^xe^{-t}f'(t)dt, F′=F+f′F'=F+f'. Then f=(2x−1)exf=(2x-1)e^x.

Minimum. f′=(2x+1)ex=0f'=(2x+1)e^x=0 at x=−12x=-\frac12: f=−2e−1/2f=-2e^{-1/2}.
