प्रश्न
A rectangular sheet of tin 45 cm by 24 cm is to be made into a box without top, by cutting off square from each corner and folding up the flaps. What should be the side of the square to be cut off so that the volume of the box is the maximum possible?

उत्तर
Let the side of the required square be x,
Length of the box (l) = (45 - 2x)
And width of the box (b) = (24 - 2x)
Height of the box (h) = x

∴ Volume of the box, V = l × b × h
V = x (45 - 2x) · (24 - 2x)
= (4x3 - 138x2 + 1080x) ...(1)
On differentiating equation (1) with respect to x,
`(dV)/dx =` 12x2 - 276x + 1080 ...(2)
For maximum value of V, `(dV)/dx = 0`
or 12x2 - 276x + 1080 = 0 or x2 - 23x + 90 = 0
or x2 - 18x - 5x + 90 = 0 or x(x - 18) - 5 (x - 18) = 0
or (x - 18)(x - 5) = 0
`therefore` x = 5, 18
Differentiating equation (2) again with respect to x, `(d^2V)/dx^2` = 24x - 276
At, x = 5 `(d^2V)/dx^2` = 24 × 5 - 276 = (negative value)
∴ The value of V will be maximum at x = 5.
∴ The side of the square will be 5 cm.

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`

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