Find the maximum and minimum of the following functions : f(x) = x log x
Advertisements
उत्तर
f(x) = x log x
∴ f'(x) = `d/dx (x log x)`
= `x.d/dx (log x) + logx.d/dx(x)`
= `x xx (1)/x + (log x) xx 1`
= 1 + log x
and
f"(x) = `d/dx(1 + log x)`
= `0 + (1)/x = (1)/x`
Now, f'(x) = 0, if 1 + log x = 0
i.e. if log x = – 1 = – log e
i.e. if log x = `log(e^-1) = log(1)/e`
i.e. if x = `(1)/e`
When `x = (1)e, f"(x) = (1)/((1/e)` = e > 0
∴ by the second derivative test, f is minimum at x = `(1)/e`.
Minimum value of f at x = `(1)/e`
= `(1)/elog(1/e)`
= `(1)/e.log(e^-1)`
= `(1)/e.(-1)log e`
= `-(1)/e`. ...[∵ log e = 1]

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"`
