उत्तर
Let the numbers be x and 16 - x and let
S = x3 + (16 - x)3
⇒ S = x3 + (16 - x)3
⇒ `(dS)/dx = 3x^2 + 3 (16 - x)^2 (-1)`
For minimum S, let `(dS)/dx = 0`
⇒ 3x2 - 3 (16 - x)2 = 0
⇒ x2 - (256 + x2 - 32x) = 0
⇒ 32x = 256
⇒ x = 8
`((d^2S)/dx^2) = 6x + 16 (16 - x) `
`((d^2S)/dx^2)_(x = 8) = 96 > 0`
∴ S has a minimum at x = 8
∴ The required numbers are 8 and 8.

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`
