उत्तर

We have p(x) = 41 − 72x − 18x2

p'(x) = −72 − 36x

Now for critical points, p’(x) = 0

−72 − 36x = 0

−72 = 36x

x = `36/(−72)`

x = −2

p”(x) = −36 < 0

∴ Profit is maximum at x = −2, and maximum profit is p(−2) = 41 − 72 (−2) − 18 (−2)2

= 41 + 144 − 72

= 185 − 72

= 113

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`
