उत्तर


Let x be the side of the square base and y be the length of the vertical sides.

Area of the base and bottom = 2x2 cm2

∴ Cost of the material required = ₹ 5 × 2x2

= ₹ 10x2

Area of the 4 sides = 4xy cm2

∴ Cost of the material for the four sides

= ₹ 2.50 x 4xy

= ₹ 10xy

Total cost C = 10x2 + 10xy  .....(i)

New volume of the box = x × x × y

⇒ 1024 = x2y

∴ y = `1024/x^2`  ....(ii)

Putting the value of y in equation (i) we get

C = `10x^2 + 10x xx 1024/x^2`

⇒ C = `10x^2 + 10240/x`

Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get

`"dC"/"dx" = 20x - 10240/x^2`  ....(iii)

For local maxima and local minima `"dC"/"dx"` = 0

`20 - 102400/x^2` = 0

⇒ 20x3 – 10240 = 0

⇒ x3 = 512

⇒ x = 8 cm

Now from equation (ii)

y = `10240/(8)^2`

= `10240/64`

= 16 cm

∴ Cost of material used C = 10x2 + 10xy

= 10 × 8 × 8 + 10 × 8 × 16

= 640 + 1280

= 1920

Now differentiating equation (iii) we get

`("d"^2"C")/("dx"^2) = 20 + 20480/x^3`

Put x = 8

= `20 + 20480/(8)^3`

= `20 + 20480/512`

= 20 + 40 = 60 > 0 minima

Hence, the required cost is ₹ 1920 which is the minimum.

By completing the following activity, examine the function f(x) = x3 – 9x2 + 24x for maxima and minima

Solution: f(x) = x3 – 9x2 + 24x

∴ f'(x) = `square`

∴ f''(x) = `square`

For extreme values, f'(x) = 0, we get

x = `square` or `square`

∴ f''`(square)` = – 6 < 0

∴ f(x) is maximum at x = 2.

∴ Maximum value = `square`

∴ f''`(square)` = 6 > 0

∴ f(x) is maximum at x = 4.

∴ Minimum value = `square`

The rectangle has area of 50 cm2. Complete the following activity to find its dimensions for least perimeter.

Solution: Let x cm and y cm be the length and breadth of a rectangle.

Then its area is xy = 50

∴ `y =50/x`

Perimeter of rectangle `=2(x+y)=2(x+50/x)`

Let f(x) `=2(x+50/x)`

Then f'(x) = `square` and f''(x) = `square`

Now,f'(x) = 0, if x = `square`

But x is not negative.

∴ `x = root(5)(2)   "and" f^('')(root(5)(2))=square>0`

∴ by the second derivative test f is minimum at x = `root(5)(2)`

When x = `root(5)(2),y=50/root(5)(2)=root(5)(2)`

∴ `x=root(5)(2)  "cm" , y = root(5)(2)  "cm"`

Hence, rectangle is a square of side `root(5)(2)  "cm"`
