Answer:

Correct Answer: 13. (d)

Solution:

  1. If f(x) is a continuous function defined on [a,b], then

m(ba)abf(x)dxM(ba)

where, M and m are maximum and minimum values respectively of f(x) in [a,b].

Here, f(x)=1+ex2 is continuous in [0,1].

Now, 0<x<1x2<xex2<exex2>ex

Again, 0<x<1x2>0ex2>e0ex2<1

ex<ex2<1,x[0,1]1+ex<1+ex2<2,x[0,1]01(1+ex)dx<01(1+ex2)dx<012dx21e<01(1+ex2)dx<2
