The greatest value of the function

f\left( x \right) = x{e^{ - x}}

\left[ {0,\;\infty } \right]

, is

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

\frac{1}{e}

Option B (

\frac{1}{e}

) is correct because it represents the maximum value of the function

f(x) = xe^{-x}

on the interval

[0, \infty)

found by analyzing its derivative.
