Find the local maxima and local minima values of function f(x)=
2
+
2
, x > 0.
Answers
Answer:
put question properlly Please
Step 1: First find first derivative of the function
Step 2: Put it equal to zero and find x were first derivative is zero
Step 3: Now find second derivative
Step 4: Put x for which first derivative was zero in equation of second derivative
Step 5: If second derivative is greater than zero then function takes minimum value at that x and if second derivative is negative then function will take maximum value at that x. If Second derivative is zero them it means that this is the point of inflection.
g′(x)=21−x21
Putting this equal to zero, we get
g′(x)=21−x21=0
⇒x=±2.
Please note that −2 is not in the domain of given function so it is of no use to us
Now let's see the double derivative of this function.
f′′(x)=x34
At x=2
