The absolute maximum of the function ln(x)/x is (e, 1/e)
To find the minimums/maximums of a function, you must find the critical points of the function.
f(x) = ㏑(x)÷x
f'(x) = ((1/x · x) - ㏑(x)) ÷ x² =
(1 - ㏑(x)) ÷ x² = 0
1 - ㏑(x) = 0
㏑(x) = 1
x = e 
We have determined that our only critical point is e, which means that that is the absolute maximum of the function. 
f(e) = ㏑(e) ÷ e = 1/e
The relative (absolute) maximum of the function ln(x)/x is 3)

Take the deritivive
remember
the deritivive of f(x)/g(x)=(f'(x)g(x)-g'(x)f(x))/(g(x)^2)
so
deritiveive is ln(x)/x is
remember that derivitive of lnx is 1/x
so

(1/x*x-1lnx)/(x^2)=(1-ln(x))/(x^2)
the max occurs where the value is 0
(1-ln(x))/(x^2)=0
times x^2 both sides
1-lnx=0
add lnx both sides
1=lnx
e^1=x
e=x
see if dats a max or min
at e/2, the slope is positive
at 3e/2, the slope is negative
changes from positive to negative at x=e

that means it's a max

max at x=e
I realize I didn't find the max point, so

sub back
ln(x)/x
ln(e)/e
1/e
the value of the max would be 1/e occuring where x=e

4th option is answer (1/e) because that is the value of the maximum (which happens at x=e)

Pls say hard very hard​

(a) From the histogram, you can see that there are 2 students with scores between 50 and 60; 3 between 60 and 70; 7 between 70 and 80; 9 between 80 and 90; and 1 between 90 and 100. So there are a total of 2 + 3 + 7 + 9 + 1 = 22 students.

(b) This is entirely up to whoever constructed the histogram to begin with... It's ambiguous as to which of the groups contains students with a score of exactly 60 - are they placed in the 50-60 group, or in the 60-70 group?

On the other hand, if a student gets a score of 100, then they would certainly be put in the 90-100 group. So for the sake of consistency, you should probably assume that the groups are assigned as follows:

50 ≤ score ≤ 60   ==>   50-60

60 < score ≤ 70   ==>   60-70

70 < score ≤ 80   ==>   70-80

80 < score ≤ 90   ==>   80-90

90 < score ≤ 100   ==>   90-100

Then a student who scored a 60 should be added to the 50-60 category.
