\(\color{#000000 }{ \displaystyle \frac{1}{x}+x\ge 1\quad \forall x }\)
Oh, my bad, I meant \(\color{#000000 }{ \displaystyle \left|\frac{1}{x}+x\right|\ge 1\quad \forall x }\)
Yes yes...
So, there is your answer ;)
i think u meant \(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} & x+\dfrac1x\geq 2\hspace{.33em}\\~\\ \end{align}}\)
what to do next
You know that \(\color{#000000 }{ \displaystyle \left|\sin x\right|\le 1 }\) and \(\color{#000000 }{ \displaystyle \left|\cos x\right|\le 1 }\) (1st eq, not relevant here)
\(\color{#000000 }{ \displaystyle \cos \theta=\frac{1}{x}+x }\) is an equivalent to saying, \(\color{#000000 }{ \displaystyle \cos \theta=2{\rm ~or~more} }\)
well, for negatives , -2 or less.
the point is tho, that cosine (and sine) are always between -1 and 1.
is it \(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} & d.)\ \hspace{.33em}\\~\\ \end{align}}\)
yes
Yes, it is d. \(d\theta\) :)
too late :)
Because parth replied, or because you submitted?
i m not on a test to submit :)
cu then, then.... :)
Some things are better to be kept unspoken -joker
\( ~~~\)
\[x+\frac{ 1 }{ x }=\cos \theta ,x^2-x \cos \theta +1=0\] \[x=\frac{ \cos \theta \pm \sqrt{\left( -\cos \theta \right)^2-4*1*1} }{ 2*1 }=\frac{ \cos \theta \pm \sqrt{\cos ^2 \theta -4} }{ 2 }\] x is real if \[\cos ^2\theta -4\geq 0 ~or \left| \cos \theta \right| \geq2\] which is impossible as \[\left| \cos \theta \right|\leq 1\] Hence x has no real solution.
