Question
Find the absolute maximum value and the absolute minimum value of the following function in the given interval:
`f(x) =x^3, x in [-2,2]`
Advertisements
Solution
f (x) =x3, x ∈ [-2, 2]
= f' (x) = 3x2
For critical points, f' (x) = 0
= 3x2 = 0
= x = 0 ∈ [-2, 2]
Hence, for finding the absolute maximum value and the absolute minimum value, we have to evaluate f (0), f (-2) and f (2).
Now f(0) = 03, f(-2) = (-2)3 = -8 and f (2) = 23 = 8
∴ Absolute maximum value of f (x) = 8 at x = 2 and absolute minimum value of f (x) = -8 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.
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.
