Let f : [12,1]R (the set of all real numbers) be a positive, non‑constant and differentiable function such that f '(x) < 2f(x) and  f(12)  = 1. Then the value of   1/21f(x)dx  lies in the interval

 (0,e12)

(2e – 1, 2e)

 (e12,e1)

(e – 1, 2e – 1)

Solution

Given, f '(x) < 2f(x)

  f '(x) – 2f(x) < 0  x[12,1]

 ddx(f(x)·e2x)<0

Hence, f(x) e–2x is a decreasing function in [12,1]

 f(x)e2xf(12).e1

 f(x)e2x1×1e

0 f(x) e2x –1

Hence,  0<1/21f(x)dx1/21e2x1dx       

 0<Ie12
