Find the local maxima and local minima, if any, of the following functions. Find also the local maximum and the local minimum values, as the case may be: (i). f(x) = x2 (ii). g(x) = x3 − 3x (iii). h(x) = sinx + cos, 0 <x<\(\frac{\pi}{2}\) (iv). f(x) = sinx − cos x, 0 < x < 2π (v). f(x) = x3 − 6x2 + 9x + 15(vi) g(x)=\(\frac{x}{2}\)+\(\frac{2}{x}\)>0 (vii).g(x)=\(\frac{1}{x^2}\)+2(viii). f(x)=x√1-x,x>0
(i) f(x) = x2
∴f'(x)=0=x=0
Thus, x = 0 is the only critical point that could possibly be the point of local maxima or local minima of f. We have f''(0)=2, which is positive.
Therefore, by the second derivative test, x = 0 is a point of local minima and the local minimum value of f at x = 0 is f(0) = 0. (ii) g(x) = x3 − 3x
∴ g'(x)=3\(\times\)2-3
Now
g'(x)=0=3\(\times\)2=3=x=±1
g'(x)=6x
g'(1)=6>0
g'(-1)=-6<0
By second derivative test, x = 1 is a point of local minima and local minimum value of g at x = 1 is g(1) = 13 − 3 = 1 − 3 = −2. However, x = −1 is a point of local maxima and local maximum value of g at x = −1 is g(1) = (−1)3 − 3 (− 1) = − 1 + 3 = 2.
(iii) h(x) = sinx + cosx, 0 < x <\(\frac{\pi}{2}\)
h'(x)=cos x-sinx
h'(x)=0=sinx=cosx=tanx1=x=\(\frac{\pi}{4}\)∈(0,\(\frac{\pi}{2}\))
h\(\times\)(X)=-sinx-cosx=-(sinx+cos x)
h\(\times\)(π/4)=-(\(\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}\)+\(\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}\))=\(\frac{2}{\sqrt 2}\)=√2<0.
Therefore, by second derivative test, x=\(\frac{\pi}{4}\) is a point of local maxima and the local
maximum value of h at is x=\(\frac{\pi}{4}\) is h(\(\frac{\pi}{4}\))=sin +cos \(\frac{\pi}{4}\)=\(\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}\)+\(\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}\)=√2.
(iv) f(x) = sin x − cos x, 0 < x < 2π
f'(x)=cosx+sinx
f'(x)=0=cosx=-sin x=tanx=-1=x=\(\frac{3\pi}{4}\),\(\frac{7\pi}{4}\)∈(0,2π)
f*(x)-sinx+cosx
f''(3π/4)=-sin 3π/4+cos 3π/4=-\(\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}\)-\(\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}\)=-√2>0
f''(7π/4)=-sin 7π/4+cos 7π/4=-\(\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}\)-\(\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}\)=-√2>0
Therefore, by second derivative test x=3π/4, is a point of local maxima and the local maximum value of f at x=\(\frac{3\pi}{4}\), is -√2
the local minimum value of f at is.
(v) f(x) = x3−6x2+9x+15
f'(x)=3x2-12x+9
x=1,3
Now, f''
(x)=6x-12=6(x-2)
f\(\times\)(1)=6(1-2)=-6<0
f\(\times\)(3)=6(1-2)=-6>0
Therefore, by the second derivative test, x = 1 is a point of local maxima and the local maximum value of f at x = 1 is f(1) = 1 − 6 + 9 + 15 = 19. However, x = 3 is a point of local minima and the local minimum value of f at x = 3 is f(3) = 27 − 54 + 27 + 15 = 15
g\(\times\)(2)=\(\frac{4}{23}\)=\(\frac{1}{2}\)>0
Therefore, by the second derivative test, x = 2 is a point of local minima and the local minimum value of g at x = 2 is g(2) =\(\frac{2}{2}\)+\(\frac{2}{2}\)=1+1=2.
∴f(\(\frac{2}{3}\))=\(\frac{2}{3}\)√I-\(\frac{2}{3}\)=\(\frac{2}{3}\)√I/3=2/3
If \( x = a(0 - \sin \theta) \), \( y = a(1 + \cos \theta) \), find \[ \frac{dy}{dx}. \]
Find the least value of ‘a’ for which the function \( f(x) = x^2 + ax + 1 \) is increasing on the interval \( [1, 2] \).
Rupal, Shanu and Trisha were partners in a firm sharing profits and losses in the ratio of 4:3:1. Their Balance Sheet as at 31st March, 2024 was as follows:
(i) Trisha's share of profit was entirely taken by Shanu.
(ii) Fixed assets were found to be undervalued by Rs 2,40,000.
(iii) Stock was revalued at Rs 2,00,000.
(iv) Goodwill of the firm was valued at Rs 8,00,000 on Trisha's retirement.
(v) The total capital of the new firm was fixed at Rs 16,00,000 which was adjusted according to the new profit sharing ratio of the partners. For this necessary cash was paid off or brought in by the partners as the case may be.
Prepare Revaluation Account and Partners' Capital Accounts.
The extrema of a function are very well known as Maxima and minima. Maxima is the maximum and minima is the minimum value of a function within the given set of ranges.
There are two types of maxima and minima that exist in a function, such as:
