#Mark the correct alternative in each of the following

The maximum value of x1/x, x > 0 is


.


Let


therefore,.


Differentiating w.r.t x


so,




Now, lets put y’=0




soOR1-log x) =0


therefore,x=1/e and x=0


Hence by second derivative test


f’’(1/e)<0 so it’s a point of maximum


and maximum value is.
