Misc 1 Show that the function given by f(x) = logโก๐ฅ/๐ฅ is maximum at x = e.Let f(๐ฅ) = logโก๐ฅ/๐ฅ Finding fโ(๐) fโ(๐ฅ) = ๐/๐๐ฅ (logโก๐ฅ/๐ฅ) fโ(๐ฅ) = (๐(logโก๐ฅ )/๐๐ฅ " " . ๐ฅ โ ๐(๐ฅ)/๐๐ฅ " . log " ๐ฅ)/๐ฅ2 fโ(๐ฅ) = (1/๐ฅ ร ๐ฅ โ logโก๐ฅ)/๐ฅ2 fโ(๐ฅ) = (1 โ logโก๐ฅ)/๐ฅ2 Putting fโ(๐) = 0 (1 โ logโก๐ฅ)/๐ฅ2=0 1 โ log ๐ฅ = 0 log ๐ฅ = 1 ๐ = e Finding fโโ(๐) fโ(๐ฅ) = (1 โ logโก๐ฅ)/๐ฅ2 Diff w.r.t. ๐ฅ fโโ(๐ฅ) = ๐/๐๐ฅ ((1 โ logโก๐ฅ)/๐ฅ2) fโโ(๐ฅ) = (๐(1 โ logโก๐ฅ )/๐๐ฅ . ๐ฅ2โ ๐(๐ฅ2)/๐๐ฅ . (1 โ logโก๐ฅ ))/(๐ฅ^2 )^2 = ((0 โ 1/๐ฅ) . ๐ฅ2 โ 2๐ฅ(1 โ logโก๐ฅ ))/๐ฅ4 = ((โ1)/๐ฅ ร ๐ฅ2 โ 2๐ฅ(1 โ logโก๐ฅ ))/๐ฅ^4 = (โ๐ฅ โ 2๐ฅ(1 โ logโก๐ฅ ))/๐ฅ^4 = (โ๐ฅ[1 + 2(1 โ logโก๐ฅ )])/๐ฅ4 = (โ๐ฅ[3 โ 2 logโก๐ฅ ])/๐ฅ4 โด fโโ(๐ฅ) = (โ(3 โ 2 logโก๐ฅ ))/๐ฅ3 Putting ๐ = e fโโ(๐) = (โ(3 โ 2 logโก๐ ))/๐3 = (โ(3 โ 2))/๐3 = (โ1)/๐3 = โ(1/๐3) < 0 Since fโโ(๐ฅ) < 0 at ๐ฅ = e . โด ๐ฅ = e is point of maxima Hence, f(๐ฅ) is maximum at ๐ = e.
