उत्तर

Let first number = x then second number = 24 - x.

According to the question, their product p = x(24 - x) = 24x - x2               ..…(1)

For highest and lowest value, `(dp)/dx = 0`

On differentiating equation (1) with respect to x,

`(dp)/dx = 24 - 2x`

`=> 0 = 24 - 2x`

`=> 2x = 24`

` therefore x = 12`

Again differentiating equation (1) with respect to x,

`(d^2p)/(dx^2) = - 2`     (negative value)

`((d^2p)/dx^2)_(x = 12) = -2 < 0`

p has a masimum value at x = 12

So, the requied number are 12 and 24 - 12 = 12

The rectangle has area of 50 cm2. Complete the following activity to find its dimensions for least perimeter.

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

Then its area is xy = 50

∴ `y =50/x`

Perimeter of rectangle `=2(x+y)=2(x+50/x)`

Let f(x) `=2(x+50/x)`

Then f'(x) = `square` and f''(x) = `square`

Now,f'(x) = 0, if x = `square`

But x is not negative.

∴ `x = root(5)(2)   "and" f^('')(root(5)(2))=square>0`

∴ by the second derivative test f is minimum at x = `root(5)(2)`

When x = `root(5)(2),y=50/root(5)(2)=root(5)(2)`

∴ `x=root(5)(2)  "cm" , y = root(5)(2)  "cm"`

Hence, rectangle is a square of side `root(5)(2)  "cm"`
