Ex 6.3, 13 Find two numbers whose sum is 24 and whose product is as large as possible. Let first number be š‘„ Now, given that First number + Second number = 24 š‘„ + second number = 24 Second number = 24 – š‘„ Product = (š‘“š‘–š‘Ÿš‘ š‘” š‘›š‘¢š‘šš‘š‘’š‘Ÿ ) Ɨ (š‘ š‘’š‘š‘œš‘›š‘‘ š‘›š‘¢š‘šš‘š‘’š‘Ÿ) = š‘„ (24āˆ’š‘„) Let P(š‘„) = š‘„ (24āˆ’š‘„) We need product as large as possible Hence we need to find maximum value of P(š‘„) Finding P’(x) P(š‘„)=š‘„(24āˆ’š‘„) P(š‘„)=24š‘„āˆ’š‘„^2 P’(š‘„)=24āˆ’2š‘„ P’(š‘„)=2(12āˆ’š‘„) Putting P’(š‘„)=0 2(12āˆ’š‘„)=0 12 – š‘„ = 0 š‘„ = 12 Finding P’’(š‘„) P’(š‘„)=24āˆ’2š‘„ P’’(š‘„) = 0 – 2 = – 2 Thus, p’’(š‘„) < 0 for š‘„ = 12 š‘„ = 12 is point of maxima & P(š‘„) is maximum at š‘„ = 12 Finding maximum P(x) P(š‘„)=š‘„(24āˆ’š‘„) Putting š‘„ = 12 p(12)= 12(24āˆ’12) = 12(12) = 144 ∓ First number = x = 12 & Second number = 24 – x = (24 – 12)= 12
