Its a CAT 2004 question. Answer is option 4.
Refer question 53
Can someone explain it to me without graphs ?
Well, without graphs, hmmm, Let's see

See, first things first, a>0 in all options => the quadratic equation will face upwards .. so it can never attain maximum value at x = 0

Then, x>=0
f(x) = a(x^2) - bx -> roots are 0, (b/a) .. If (b/a) >0 => the quadratic equation will attain minimum value between 0 and (b/a) .. So, b and a should be of opposite signs to prevent that from happening..

x
f(x) = a(x^2) + bx -> roots are (0, -b/a) .. if (-b/a) same thing as above.. b and a should have opposite signs for attaining minimum value at x = 0

@ankita14 I didn't understand
At x=0 f(x)=0, so for what range of a and b is 0 the maximum/minimum value of the function.

Written in 1936, CarminaBurana is based on a collection of songs and poetry dating back to the 11th and 12th centuries. Orff's Burana is an interpretation of 24 poems, and is presented as a cantata — a vocal-driven composition, slightly different than an opera, usually broken up into several movements, and often performed by a choir. The opening and closing movement — “O Fortuna” (or,“O Fortune”) — with its thunderous tympani and rising choruses — is a powerful statement on man's impotence against the cosmic forces that shape and determine his fate.

(a) An opera is a part of the Western classical music tradition and started in Italy at the end of the
16th century.
(b) It was memorably used in the opening scene from Jackass The Movie.
(c) There are many schools of thought which do not subscribe to the power of the cosmic forces.
(d) The 11th and 12th centuries were periods rich in art, literature and the sciences

Let f(x) = ax^2 €“ b |x|, where a and b are constants. Then at x = 0, f(x) is
(1) maximized whenever a> 0, b >0
(2) maximized whenever a > 0, b
(3) minimized whenever a > 0, b > 0
(4) minimized whenever a > 0, b
Can someone explain the answer ?
Option 4 ?

when x=0, f(x) =0. if a>0 and b
Thanks a lot. Finally understood. Sheesh ! I had been sitting and staring at the question and explanation for the past half an hour
