Step 1: Understanding the Topic
This question requires solving a first-order linear ordinary differential equation. The equation is of the form $y' + P(x)y = Q(x)$, which can be solved systematically using the method of integrating factors.
Step 2: Key Approach - Integrating Factor Method
First, we rearrange the equation into the standard linear form:
\[
f'(x) - f(x) = \pi - \pi x
\]
Here, $P(x) = -1$ and $Q(x) = \pi - \pi x$. The integrating factor is given by $I(x) = e^{\int P(x) dx}$. After finding $I(x)$, we multiply the entire equation by it, which makes the left side an exact derivative of $(I(x) \cdot f(x))$. We then integrate both sides to find the general solution for $f(x)$.
Step 3: Detailed Calculation
A. Find the integrating factor:
\[
I(x) = e^{\int -1 \,dx} = e^{-x}
\]
B. Multiply the DE by the integrating factor:
\[
e^{-x} f'(x) - e^{-x} f(x) = (\pi - \pi x) e^{-x}
\]
The left side is the derivative of $(e^{-x} f(x))$:
\[
\frac{d}{dx} \left( e^{-x} f(x) \right) = (\pi - \pi x) e^{-x}
\]
C. Integrate both sides with respect to x:
\[
e^{-x} f(x) = \int (\pi - \pi x) e^{-x} dx
\]
We solve the integral on the right using integration by parts ($\int u \, dv = uv - \int v \, du$). Let $u = \pi - \pi x$ and $dv = e^{-x} dx$. Then $du = -\pi dx$ and $v = -e^{-x}$.
\[
\int (\pi - \pi x) e^{-x} dx = (\pi - \pi x)(-e^{-x}) - \int (-e^{-x})(-\pi dx)
\]
\[
= -(\pi - \pi x)e^{-x} - \pi \int e^{-x} dx = -(\pi - \pi x)e^{-x} - \pi(-e^{-x}) + C
\]
\[
= -\pi e^{-x} + \pi x e^{-x} + \pi e^{-x} + C = \pi x e^{-x} + C
\]
So, we have:
\[
e^{-x} f(x) = \pi x e^{-x} + C
\]
D. Solve for f(x) and evaluate f(1):
Multiply by $e^x$ to isolate $f(x)$:
\[
f(x) = \pi x + C e^x
\]
Now, find the value at $x=1$:
\[
f(1) = \pi(1) + C e^1 = \pi + Ce
\]
The solution must be of the form $\pi$ plus some constant. Looking at the options, option (A) is $\pi + 1/6$. This is a possible value if the constant of integration $C$ is such that $Ce = 1/6$. Without initial conditions, $C$ is arbitrary, so any value of the form $\pi + \text{const.}$ is possible. Option (A) is the only one that fits this structure.
Step 4: Final Answer
The general solution for $f(1)$ is $\pi + Ce$. Option (A) is a possible value.
\[
\boxed{f(1) = \pi + \frac{1}{6}}
\]
