If the function

f\left( x \right) = \frac{{ax + b}}{{\left( {x - 1} \right)\left( {x - 4} \right)}}

has an extremum at

P\left( {2,\; - 1} \right)

then

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

a = 1,\;b = 0

Option C (a = 1, b = 0) is correct because substituting these values into the function and its derivative satisfies the given conditions of having an extremum at P(2, -1).
