Question

Find the maximum and minimum value, if any, of the following function given by f(x) = (2x − 1)2 + 3. 

Sum

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| → ∞
