from looking the graph we can say that  maxima of function is at  x=2  for A)  ((d(f(x)))/dx)=0     [for minima or maxima]  −(1/3)×2(x−2)(1)=0  ⇒x=2  option A can be correct  for B)  ((d(f(x)))/dx)=0  −(1/3)×2(x+2)(1)=0  ⇒x=−2  option B is not correct  for C)  ((d(f(x)))/dx)=0  (1/3)×2(x+2)(1)=0  ⇒x=−2  option C is not correct  for D)  ((d(f(x)))/dx)=0  6(x−2)(1)=0  ⇒x=2  ∴ only A or D options can be correct  now lets find the zeroes of A and D  A.   −(1/3)(x−2)^2 +5=0  ⇒(x−2)=±(√(−(5)(−3)))  ⇒x=2±(√(15))  D.    3(x−2)^2 +5=0    ⇒(x−2)=±(√(−(5/3)))  ⇒x=2±z  ⇒x∉ R  But zeroes of the equation in the graph are Real  ∴ Only A is correct  Ans. A. f(x)=−(1/3)(x−2)^2 +5

it′s a hanging parabola ⇒  ⇒ f(x)=ax^2 +bx+c with a<0 ⇒  ⇒ options C, D don′t fit  A  x^2 −4x−11=0 ⇒ −(p/2)=2 ⇒ max at 2  B  x^2 +4x−11=0 ⇒ −(p/2)=−2 ⇒ max at −2  ⇒ option A

$$\mathrm{it}'\mathrm{s}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{hanging}\:\mathrm{parabola}\:\Rightarrow \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:{f}\left({x}\right)={ax}^{\mathrm{2}} +{bx}+{c}\:\mathrm{with}\:{a}<\mathrm{0}\:\Rightarrow \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{options}\:\mathrm{C},\:\mathrm{D}\:\mathrm{don}'\mathrm{t}\:\mathrm{fit} \\ $$$$\mathrm{A}\:\:{x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{4}{x}−\mathrm{11}=\mathrm{0}\:\Rightarrow\:−\frac{{p}}{\mathrm{2}}=\mathrm{2}\:\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{max}\:\mathrm{at}\:\mathrm{2} \\ $$$${B}\:\:{x}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{4}{x}−\mathrm{11}=\mathrm{0}\:\Rightarrow\:−\frac{{p}}{\mathrm{2}}=−\mathrm{2}\:\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{max}\:\mathrm{at}\:−\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{option}\:{A} \\ $$
