    The minimum value of\[f(x)=|3-x|+7\]is

    A)  0                                            

    B)  6

    C)  7                            

    D)         8

    E)  10

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[f(x)=|3-x|=\left\{ \begin{matrix}    3-x+7 & 3-x\ge 0  \\    -(3-x)+7 & 3-x<0  \\ \end{matrix} \right.\] \[=\left\{ \begin{matrix}    10-x & 3\ge x  \\    4+x & 3<x  \\ \end{matrix} \right.\] Clearly, ...\[f(1)>f(2)>f(3)<f(4)<f(5)....\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[...9>8>7<8<9<...\] \[\therefore \]Minimum value of\[f(x)=7\]
