Find the maximum and minimum values, if any, of the following functions given by (i) f(x) = (2x − 1)2 + 3 (ii) f(x) = 9x2+12x+2 (iii) f(x) = −(x − 1)2+ 10 (iv) g(x) = x3 +1
The given function is f(x) = (2x − 1)2 + 3. It can be observed that (2x − 1)2 ≥ 0 for every x ∴ R. Therefore, f(x) = (2x − 1)2+3 ≥ 3 for every x ∴ R. The minimum value of f is attained when 2x − 1 = 0.
3x + 2 = 0 ∴ x=\(-\frac{2}{3}\)
∴The minimum value of f = f(\(-\frac{2}{3}\))=(3(\(-\frac{2}{3}\))+2)2
Hence, function f does not have a maximum value.
The given function is f(x) =−(x−1)2+10.
It can be observed that (x − 1) 2 ≥ 0 for every x ∴ R.
If f (x) = 3x2+15x+5, then the approximate value of f (3.02) is
It is given that at x = 1, the function x4−62x2+ax+9 attains its maximum value, on the interval [0, 2]. Find the value of a.
Find the maximum profit that a company can make, if the profit function is given by p(x) = 41−24x−18x2
What is the Planning Process?
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:
