Ex 6.3, 13 Find two numbers whose sum is 24 and whose product is as large as possible. Let first number be π₯
Now, given that
First number + Second number = 24
π₯ + second number = 24
Second number = 24 β π₯
Product = (ππππ π‘ ππ’ππππ ) Γ (π πππππ ππ’ππππ)
= π₯ (24βπ₯)
Let P(π₯) = π₯ (24βπ₯)
We need product as large as possible
Hence we need to find maximum value of P(π₯)
Finding Pβ(x)
P(π₯)=π₯(24βπ₯)
P(π₯)=24π₯βπ₯^2
Pβ(π₯)=24β2π₯
Pβ(π₯)=2(12βπ₯)
Putting Pβ(π₯)=0
2(12βπ₯)=0
12 β π₯ = 0
π₯ = 12
Finding Pββ(π₯)
Pβ(π₯)=24β2π₯
Pββ(π₯) = 0 β 2
= β 2
Thus, pββ(π₯) < 0 for π₯ = 12
π₯ = 12 is point of maxima
& P(π₯) is maximum at π₯ = 12
Finding maximum P(x)
P(π₯)=π₯(24βπ₯)
Putting π₯ = 12
p(12)= 12(24β12)
= 12(12)
= 144
β΄ First number = x = 12
& Second number = 24 β x = (24 β 12)= 12
