उत्तर

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

∴ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(x + y) = 120 cm

∴ x + y = 60       .......(i)

Let A be the area of the rectangle.

∴ A = xy

= x(60 − x)   .......[From (i)]

= 60x − x2 

Differentiating w. r. t. x, we get

`("dA")/("d"x)` = 60 − 2x

∴ `("d"^2"A")/("d"x^2)` = −2

For maximum area, `"dA"/("d"x)` = 0

∴ 60 − 2x = 0

∴ x = 30

For x = 30,

`(("d"^2"A")/("d"x^2))_(x = 30)` = − 2 < 0

When x = 30, area of the rectangle is maximum.

and y = 60 − 30 = 30   .......[From (i)]

∴ Area of the rectangle is maximum if length = breadth = 30 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`
