Solution
Let, f (x) = 3x4 - 8x3 + 12x2 - 48x + 25
f‘(x) = 12x3 - 24x2 + 24x - 48
= 12 [x3 - 2x2 + 2x - 4]
= 12 [x2 (x - 2) + 2 (x - 2)]
= 12 (x - 2) (x2 + 2)
If f'(x) = 0, then x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2
x2 + 2 = 0 is impossible.
We now find the value of f at x = 2 and the endpoints of the interval [0, 3].
At, x = 0 f(0) = 25
At, x = 2 f(2) = 3(2)4 - 8(2)3 + 12(2)2 - 48(2) + 25
= 3 × 16 - 8 × 8 + 12 × 4 - 48 × 2 + 25
= 48 - 64 + 48 - 96 + 25
= - 39
At, x = 3 f(3) = 3(3)4 - 8(3)3 + 12(3)2 - 48(3) + 25
= 3 × 81 - 8 × 27 + 12 × 9 - 48 × 3 + 25
= 243 - 216 + 108 - 144 + 25
= 16
∴ Maximum value off (x) = 25 at x = 0 and minimum value of f(x ) = -39 at x = 2.

Complete the following activity to divide 84 into two parts such that the product of one part and square of the other is maximum.
Solution: Let one part be x. Then the other part is 84 - x
Letf (x) = x2 (84 - x) = 84x2 - x3
∴ f'(x) = `square`
and f''(x) = `square`
For extreme values, f'(x) = 0
∴ x = `square "or" square`
f(x) attains maximum at x = `square`
Hence, the two parts of 84 are 56 and 28.
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"`
