Question
State the method of obtaining maximum or minimum value of a function.

Answer

Suppose, $y = f(x).$
  • Find $\frac{d y}{d x} = f’ (x)$ for the given function.
  • Solve the equation $\frac{d y}{d x} = 0$ and obtain the values of $x.$ These values are the stationary points of function.
  • Obtain second order derivative $\frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}} = f”(x).$
  • At the stationary value of $x$ if $\frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}} > 0 ($Positive$),$ then that value of $x$ gives the minimum value of the function. Putting this value of $x$ In the function, the minimum value of the function is obtained.
  • At the stationary value of $x$ if $\frac{d^{2} y}{d x^{2}} < 0 ($Negative$),$ then that value of $x$ gives the maximum value of the function. Putting this value of $x$ in the function, the maximum value of the function is obtained.
