Find the maximum and minimum value, if any, of the following function given by f(x) = 9x2 + 12x + 2

Solution

We have,

`f (x) = 9x^2 + 12x + 2 = 9 (x^2 + 4/3 x) + 2`

`= 9 {x^2 + 4/3x + 4/9} + 2 - 4 = 9 (x + 2/3)^2 - 2`

Since, `(x + 2/3)^2 >= 0`

= `9 (x + 2/3)^2 - 2 >= -2`

= f (x) ≥ -2 for all x ∈ R.

∴ Minimum f (x) = -2, which occurs when,

`x + 2/3 = 0, i.e, when  (x + 2/3) = 0` when `x = -2/3`

f (x) has no maximum value, for f (x), f (x) → ∞ as |x| →  ∞

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 x + y = 8, then the maximum value of x2y is ______.
