Q6 of 137 Page 19

Write the point where () = e attains minimum value.

Let f (x)= x loge x. Clearly f (x) is only defined for x >0.


For minimum value; f’(x)=0 and f’’(x)>0.


f’(x)= 1+lnx


⇒ x=1/e


f’’(x)= 1/x, Clearly f’’(x)>0 for all x. So only minima is defined.


So, minima of f (x) is at x = 1/e
