(1) When m=e, find the minimum value of f(x);
(2) Discuss the number of zeros of the function g(x)=f'(x)-x/3;
(3) If there is a b>a>0, [f (b)-f (a)]/(b-a) <; 1 holds, and find the range of m.
(1) Analysis: When m=e and f(x)=lnx+e/x,
Let f ′ (x) = (x-e)/x2 = 0 = = > x = e;
When x∈(0, e), f ′ (x) < 0, and f(x) is a decreasing function on (0, e) ∴;
When x∈(e, +∞), f ′ (x) > 0, and f(x) is the increasing function on (e, +∞);
When x = e, f(x) takes the minimum value f (e) = lne+e/e = 2;
(2) analysis: ∫ function g (x) = f ′ (x)-x/3 =1/x-m/x2-x/3 (x > 0),
Let g(x)=0 and get m =-1/3x3+x (x > 0);
Let φ (x) =- 1/3x 3+x (x ≥ 0),
∴φ′(x)=-x^2+ 1=-(x- 1)(x+ 1);
When x∈(0, 1), φ′ (x) > 0, and φ(x) is increasing function at (0, 1).
When x∈( 1, +∞), φ′ (x) < 0, and φ(x) is a decreasing function on (1, +∞);
∴φ(x) takes the maximum at x= 1, where x= 1 is the maximum point of φ(x), and φ (1) = 2/3;
φ(0)=0, combined with the image of y=φ(x), as shown in the figure;
Understand:
When m > 2/3, the function g(x) has no zero;
When m=2/3, the function g(x) has one and only one zero;
When 0 < m < 2/3, the function g(x) has two zeros;
When m≤0, the function g(x) has one and only one zero;
To sum up:
When m > 2/3, the function g(x) has no zero;
When m=2/3 or m≤0, the function g(x) has one and only one zero;
When 0 < m < 2/3, the function g(x) has two zeros;
(3 analysis: ∫ for any b > a > 0, [f (b)-f (a)]/(b-a)
Equivalent to f (b)-b < f (a)-a constant;
Let h (x) = f (x)-x = lnx+m/x-x (x > 0),
∴h(x) monotonically decreases at (0, +∞);
∫ h ′ (x) =1/x-m/x2-1≤ 0 always holds when (0, +∞),
∴m≥-x^2+x=-(x- 1/2)^2+ 1/4(x>0),
∴m≥ 1/4;
For m= 1/4, h ′ (x) = 0 only holds when x= 1/2;
The range of ∴m is [1/4, +∞).
