उत्तर

f(x) = x log x

∴ f'(x) = `d/dx (x log x)`

= `x.d/dx (log x) + logx.d/dx(x)`

= `x xx (1)/x + (log x) xx 1`
= 1 + log x
and
f"(x) = `d/dx(1 + log x)`

= `0 + (1)/x = (1)/x`

Now, f'(x) = 0, if 1 + log x = 0
i.e. if log x = – 1 = – log e

i.e. if log x = `log(e^-1) = log(1)/e`

i.e. if x = `(1)/e`

When `x = (1)e, f"(x) = (1)/((1/e)` = e > 0

∴ by the second derivative test, f is minimum at x = `(1)/e`.

Minimum value of f at x = `(1)/e`

 = `(1)/elog(1/e)`

= `(1)/e.log(e^-1)`

= `(1)/e.(-1)log e`

= `-(1)/e`.                 ...[∵ log e = 1]

Complete the following activity to divide 84 into two parts such that the product of one part and square of the other is maximum.

Solution: Let one part be x. Then the other part is 84 - x

Letf (x) = x2 (84 - x) = 84x2 - x3

∴ f'(x) = `square`

and f''(x) = `square`

For extreme values, f'(x) = 0

∴ x = `square  "or"    square`

f(x) attains maximum at x = `square`

Hence, the two parts of 84 are 56 and 28.
