Determine the maximum and minimum value of the following function.
f(x) = `x^2 + 16/x`

उत्तर
f(x) = `x^2 + 16/x`
∴ f'(x) = `2x - 16/x^2`
and f"(x) = `2 + 32/x^3`
Consider, f'(x) = 0
∴ `2x - 16/x^2` = 0
∴ 2x = `16/x^2`
∴ x3 = 8
∴ x = 2
The maximum value is 2.
f(x) = `x^2 + 16/x`
For x = 2
f''(2) = `2 + 32/2^3`
= `2 + 32/8`
= 2 + 4
= 6 > 0
∴ f(x) attains minimum value at x = 2
∴ Minimum value = f(2) = `(2)^2 + 16/2 = 4 + 8` = 12
∴ The function f(x) has minimum value 12 at x = 2.

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"`
