Question
Find the maximum and minimum value, if any, of the following function given by f(x) = (2x − 1)2 + 3.
Advertisements
Solution
We have, f(x) = (2x - 1)2 + 3 for all x ∈ R.
Since, (2x - 1)2 ≥ 0
= (2x - 1)2 + 3 ≥ 3
∴ Minimum f (x) = 3, which occurs when 2x - 1 = 0 i.e, when x = `1/2`
Value of f (x) has no maximum value, because f (x) → ∞ as |x| → ∞

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`
