Find the maximum profit that a company can make, if the profit function is given by P(x) = 72 + 42x – x2, where x is the number of units and P is the profit in rupees.

उत्तर
For maxima and minima,
P'(x) = 0
`\implies` 42 – 2x = 0
`\implies` x = 21 and P"(x) = –2 < 0
So, P(x) is maximum at x = 21.
The maximum value of P(x) = 72 + (42 × 21) – (21)2 = 513
i.e., the maximum profit is ₹ 513.

A metal wire of 36 cm long is bent to form a rectangle. By completing the following activity, find it’s dimensions when it’s area is maximum.
Solution: Let the dimensions of the rectangle be x cm and y cm.
∴ 2x + 2y = 36
Let f(x) be the area of rectangle in terms of x, then
f(x) = `square`
∴ f'(x) = `square`
∴ f''(x) = `square`
For extreme value, f'(x) = 0, we get
x = `square`
∴ f''`(square)` = – 2 < 0
∴ Area is maximum when x = `square`, y = `square`
∴ Dimensions of rectangle are `square`
