Question
Find the absolute maximum value and the absolute minimum value of the following function in the given interval:
f (x) = sin x + cos x , x ∈ [0, π]
Advertisements
Solution
Given function f(x) = sin x + cos x, on the interval [0, `pi`]
f'(x) = cos x - sin x
If f'(x) = 0
Then cos x - sin x = 0
`therefore tan x = 1 => x = pi/4`
At x = 0, f(0) = sin 0° + cos 0° = 1
At `x = pi/4, f(pi/4) = sin pi/4 + cos pi/4`
`= 1/sqrt2 + 1/sqrt2`
`= 2/sqrt2`
`= sqrt2`
At x = π, f (π) = sin π + cos π
= 0 - 1
= - 1
`therefore` absolute highest value = `sqrt2`
and absolute minimum value = -1

By completing the following activity, examine the function f(x) = x3 – 9x2 + 24x for maxima and minima
Solution: f(x) = x3 – 9x2 + 24x
∴ f'(x) = `square`
∴ f''(x) = `square`
For extreme values, f'(x) = 0, we get
x = `square` or `square`
∴ f''`(square)` = – 6 < 0
∴ f(x) is maximum at x = 2.
∴ Maximum value = `square`
∴ f''`(square)` = 6 > 0
∴ f(x) is maximum at x = 4.
∴ Minimum value = `square`
