उत्तर
If f(x) = `(x^2 - 1)/(x^2 + 1)`, for every real x, then the minimum value of f is –1.
Explanation:
f(x) = `(x^2 - 1)/(x^2 + 1) = (x^2 + 1 - 2)/(x^2 + 1) = 1 - 2/(x^2 + 1)`
Therefore, f(x) < 1 ∀x and ≥ –1 ......`(∵ 2/(x^2 + 1) ≤ 2)`
Therefore, –1 ≤ f(x) < 1
Hence, f(x) has minimum value −1 and also there is no maximum value.
Alter: We have
f'(x) = `((x^2 + 1)2x - (x^2 - 1)2x)/(x^2 + 1)^2 = (4x)/(x^2 + 1)^2`
f'(x) = 0
⇒ x = 0
Now, f"(x) = `((x^2 + 1)^2 4 - 4x.2(x^2 + 1)2x)/(x^2 + 1)^4`
= `((x^2 + 1)4 - 16x(x))/(x^2 + 1)^3`
= `(-12x^2 + 4)/(x^2 + 1)^3`
Therefore, f′′(0) > 0 and there is only one critical point that has minima. Hence, f(x) has the least value at x = 0
fmin = f(0) = –1/1 = –1

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`

If Mr. Rane order x chairs at the price p = (2x2 - 12x - 192) per chair. How many chairs should he order so that the cost of deal is minimum?
Solution: Let Mr. Rane order x chairs.
Then the total price of x chairs = p·x = (2x2 - 12x- 192)x
= 2x3 - 12x2 - 192x
Let f(x) = 2x3 - 12x2 - 192x
∴ f'(x) = `square` and f''(x) = `square`
f'(x ) = 0 gives x = `square` and f''(8) = `square` > 0
∴ f is minimum when x = 8
Hence, Mr. Rane should order 8 chairs for minimum cost of deal.
