Question
Find all the points of local maxima and local minima of the function f(x) = `- 3/4 x^4 - 8x^3 - 45/2 x^2 + 105`
Advertisements
Solution
f′(x) = –3x3 – 24x2 – 45x
= – 3x(x2 + 8x + 15)
= – 3x(x + 5)(x + 3)
f′(x) = 0
⇒ x = –5, x = –3, x = 0
f″(x) = –9x2 – 48x – 45
= –3(3x2 + 16x + 15)
f″(0) = – 45 < 0. Therefore, x = 0 is point of local maxima
f″(–3) = 18 > 0. Therefore, x = –3 is point of local minima
f″(–5) = –30 < 0. Therefore x = –5 is point of local maxima.

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.
