Divide the number 20 into two parts such that their product is maximum
उत्तर
The given number is 20.
Let x be one part of the number and y be the other part.
∴ x + y = 20
∴ y = (20 – x) ......(i)
The product of two numbers is xy.
∴ f(x) = xy
= x(20 – x) ......[From (i)]
= 20x – x2
∴ f'(x) = 20 – 2x and f''(x) = – 2
Consider, f'(x) = 0
∴ 20 – 2x = 0
∴ 20 = 2x
∴ x = 10
For x = 10,
f''(10) = – 2 < 0
∴ f(x), i.e., product is maximum at x = 10
and y = 20 – 10 ......[From (i)]
i.e., y = 10

A metal wire of 36 cm long is bent to form a rectangle. By completing the following activity, find it’s dimensions when it’s area is maximum.
Solution: Let the dimensions of the rectangle be x cm and y cm.
∴ 2x + 2y = 36
Let f(x) be the area of rectangle in terms of x, then
f(x) = `square`
∴ f'(x) = `square`
∴ f''(x) = `square`
For extreme value, f'(x) = 0, we get
x = `square`
∴ f''`(square)` = – 2 < 0
∴ Area is maximum when x = `square`, y = `square`
∴ Dimensions of rectangle are `square`

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 Mr. Rane order x chairs at the price p = (2x2 - 12x - 192) per chair. How many chairs should he order so that the cost of deal is minimum?
Solution: Let Mr. Rane order x chairs.
Then the total price of x chairs = p·x = (2x2 - 12x- 192)x
= 2x3 - 12x2 - 192x
Let f(x) = 2x3 - 12x2 - 192x
∴ f'(x) = `square` and f''(x) = `square`
f'(x ) = 0 gives x = `square` and f''(8) = `square` > 0
∴ f is minimum when x = 8
Hence, Mr. Rane should order 8 chairs for minimum cost of deal.
Determine the minimum value of the function.
