(C) Given the expression $f(x) = mx - 1 + \frac{1}{x} \ge 0$ for $x > 0$. Multiplying by $x$ (since $x > 0$),we get $mx^2 - x + 1 \ge 0$. For a quadratic expression $ax^2 + bx + c \ge 0$ to be non-negative for all $x > 0$,we must have $a > 0$ and the discriminant $D \le 0$. Here,$a = m$,$b = -1$,and $c = 1$. Condition $1$: $m > 0$. Condition $2$: $D = b^2 - 4ac = (-1)^2 - 4(m)(1) = 1 - 4m \le 0$. Solving $1 - 4m \le 0$ gives $4m \ge 1$,or $m \ge \frac{1}{4}$. Since $m \ge \frac{1}{4}$ satisfies $m > 0$,the minimum value of $m$ is $\frac{1}{4}$.

If the expression $\left( mx - 1 + \frac{1}{x} \right)$ is always non-negative for $x > 0$,then the minimum value of $m$ must be
