    On which of the following intervals is the function \[{{\operatorname{x}}^{100}}+ sin x -1\] decreasing?

    A) \[(0,\,\,\pi /2)\]

    B)   (0, 1)

    C) \[(\pi /2,\,\,\pi )\]                      

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[\operatorname{f}(x)\,={{x}^{100}}\,+sin\,x\,-1\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,f'(x)=100{{x}^{99}}+cos\,x\] If \[0<x< \pi /2, then f(x)>0.\] Therefore f(x) is increasing on \[(0,\,\,\pi /2)\]. If \[0<x<1\], then \[100{{x}^{99}}>0 and cos\,\,x>0\] [\[\because \] x lies between 0 and 1 radian] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,f(x)\,\,=\,\,100{{x}^{99}}''+cos\,\,x>0\] f(x) is increasing on (0, 1). If \[\pi /2<x<\pi \], then \[100 {{x}^{99}}> 100\] \[[\because \,\,x>1,\,\,\,\therefore \,\,{{x}^{99}}>1]\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,100{{x}^{99}}\,+\,\,cos\,x>0\] \[\left[ \because  cos x \ge  -1, \,\therefore  \,100{{x}^{99}}+ cos x > 99 \right]\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,f'\,(x) > 0 \Rightarrow \, f(x)\] is increasing on \[(\pi /2,\,\pi ).\]
