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.

  2. Find `(dV)/(dr)`. (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.
