प्रश्न

Find the maximum profit that a company can make, if the profit function is given by P(x) = 72 + 42x – x2, where x is the number of units and P is the profit in rupees.

योग

उत्तर

For maxima and minima,

P'(x) = 0

`\implies` 42 – 2x = 0

`\implies` x = 21 and P"(x) = –2 < 0

So, P(x) is maximum at x = 21.

The maximum value of P(x) = 72 + (42 × 21) – (21)2 = 513

i.e., the maximum profit is ₹ 513.

By completing the following activity, examine the function f(x) = x3 – 9x2 + 24x for maxima and minima

Solution: f(x) = x3 – 9x2 + 24x

∴ f'(x) = `square`

∴ f''(x) = `square`

For extreme values, f'(x) = 0, we get

x = `square` or `square`

∴ f''`(square)` = – 6 < 0

∴ f(x) is maximum at x = 2.

∴ Maximum value = `square`

∴ f''`(square)` = 6 > 0

∴ f(x) is maximum at x = 4.

∴ Minimum value = `square`

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.


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