Explanation / Answer

Part A:

From graph,

f(x)min = 1 and f(x)max = 3

and

Cos(x)min = -1 and Cos (x)max = 1

Therefore,

from the given function,

f(x)min = cos (x)min + D

D = f(x)min - cos (x)min = 1 - (-1) = 2

D = 2

Option 'D' is Correct Choice.

Part B:

[f(x)max + f(x)min]/2 = {[cos (x)max + D]+[cos (x)min + D]}/2 = [(1+2)+(-1+2)] / 2 = [3 + 1]/2 = 2

[f(x)max + f(x)min]/2 = 2

Option 'E' is Correct Choice.
