Question
Find the maximum and minimum value, if any, of the following function given by g(x) = − |x + 1| + 3.
Advertisements
Solution
Given function g(x) = - |x + 1| + 3; g (3) ≤ 3∀ x ∈ R
Maximum value of -|x +1| = 0
Maximum value of g(x) = -|x + 1| + 3 = 0 + 3 = 3
occurs when x + 1 = 0, i.e., when x = -1.
Note that g(x) has no minimum value, for g (x) → a - ∞ as |x| ∞.

A metal wire of 36 cm long is bent to form a rectangle. Find its dimensions when its area is maximum.
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"`
