We have, f(x) = sin 2x, x ∈ [0, 2π],
f(x) = 2cos 2x.
At f(x) = 0.
2 cos 2x = 0
cos 2x = 0
.
= 1.
= 1.
f(0) = sin 2(0) = sin 0 = 0
f(2π) = sin 2(2π) = sin 4π = 0
Hence, the points of maximum

We have, f (x) = 3x4- 8x3 + 12x2- 48x + 25, x ∈ [0, 3].
f (x) = 12x3- 24x2 + 24x - 48.
At f (x) = 0.
12x3- 24x2 + 24x - 48 = 0.
x3- 2x2 + 2x - 4 = 0
x2 (x - 2) + 2 (x - 2) = 0
(x - 2) + (x2 + 2) = 0
x = 2 ∈ [0, 3] or x = which is not possible as
∴f (x) = 3 (2)4- 8 (2)3 + 12 (2)2- 4 (2) + 25.
=48 - 64 + 48 - 96 + 25.
= -39.
f (0) =3 (0)4- 8 (0)3 + 12 (0)2- 48 (0) + 25.
= 25.
f (3) = 3 (3)4- 8 (3)3 + 12 (3)2- 48 (3) + 25.
= 243 - 216 + 108 - 144 + 25
= 16.
Maximum value of f (x) = 25 at x = 0.
and minimum value of f (x) = -39 at x = 2.

We have, p (x) = 41 -f2x - 18x2.
P (x) = - 72 - 36x
P (x) = -36
At extreme point,
- 72 - 36x = 0
.
At x = - 2, p" (x) = - 36 < 0.
∴x = -2 is a point of local maximum and the value of local
Maximum is given by P (2) = 41 - 72 (- 2) - 18 (- 2)2
41 + 144 - 72 = 113 units.

(i) We have,
f(x) = x3 , x ∈ [– 2, 2].
f(x) = 3x2.
At, f(x) = 0
3x2 = 0
x = 0 <--[-2, 2].
We shall absolute the value of f at x = 0 and points of interval [ -2, 2]. So,
f(0) = 0
f(- 2) = (- 2)3 = 8
f(2) = 23 = 8.
∴ Absolute maximum value of f(x) = 8 at x = 2
and absolute minimum value of f(x) = -8 at x = -2.
(ii) f (x) = sin x + cos x , x ∈ [0, π]
A.(ii)
We have, f(x) = sin x + cos x , x ∈ [0, π]
f(x) = cos x - sin x.
atf(x) = 0
cosx - sin x = 0
sinx = cos x

(iii) f(x) = 4x
A.(iii)
We have, f(x) = 4x
f(x) = 4 - x
atf(x) = 0
4- x = 0
x = 4
= 7.87.5
Hence, absolute maximum value of f(x) = 8 at x = 4
and absolute minimum value of f(

(i) We have, f (x) = ex
f (x) = ex.
At, extreme points,
f (x) = 0
ex = 0 which has no real 'a' value
∴f (x) has with maximum or minima
(ii) g (x) = log x
A (ii)
We have, g (x) = log x,
g (x) =
At extreme points,
g (x) = 0
1 = 0 which is not true.
∴g (x) was value minima or maxima
(iii) h (x) = x3 + x2 + x + 1.
A (iii)
We have, h (x) = x3 + x2 + x + 1.
h (x) = 3x2 + 2x + 1
At extreme points,
h (x) = 0
3x2 + 2x + 1 = 0

(i) we have, f(x) = x2.
f(x) = 2x.
andf(x) = 2.
AR extreme point, f(x) = 0
2x = 0
x = 0.
When x = 0, f(0) = 2 > 0.
∴x = 0 is a point of local minima and value of local minimum is given by f(0) = 02 = 0.
(ii) g(x) = x3 3x
A(ii)
we have, g(x) = x3- 3x
g'(x) = 3x2- 3
g''(x) = 6x.
At extreme point,
g'(x) = 0
3x2- 3 = 0.
3(x2- 1) = 0 ⇒ 3(x - 1)(x + 1) = 0.
x = 1 or x = -1.
At x = 1, g"(1) = 6.1 = 6 > 0.
So, x = 1 is a point of local minima and value of local minimum is given by g(1) = 13- 3.1 = 1 - 3 = - 2.
And at x = -1, g"( -1) = 6 ( -1) = 6 < 0.
So, x = -1 is a point of local minima and value of local minimum is given by
g(- 1) = (- 1)3- 3(- 1) = 1 + 3 = 2.

(i) we have, f(x) = |x + 2| - 1
We know that, for all
f(x)- 1.
∴ Minimum value of f(x) = -1 when x + 2 = 0 x = - 2.
And maximum value of f(x) does not exist.
(ii)
A(ii)
We have,
For all
g(x) 3.
∴ Maximum value of g(x) = 3 when
And minimum value does not exist.
(iii) h(x) = sin (2x) + 5.
A(iii)
we have, h(x) = sin (2x) + 5.
For all {range of sine function is [-1, 1]}
-1 + 5 sin 2x + 5 1 + 5.
4 h(x) 6.
∴ Maximum value of h(x) = 6.
Minimum value of h(x) = 4.
(iv)
A(iv)
we have,
As for all
-1 + 3 sin 4x + 3 1 + 3
2 f(x) 4.
∴ Maximum value of f(x) = 4.
Minimum value of f(x) = 2.

(i) We have, f(x) = (2x - 1)2 + 3.
For all
(2x - 1)2 + 3 ≥ 3.
f(x) ≥ 3.
∴The minimum value of f(x) = 3. When 2x - 1 = 0--> x =
Again as as there is vouppa bound to 'x' value hence, f(x) has no maximum values.
(ii)
A(ii)
We have, f(x) = 92 + 12x + 2.
(Taking 9 common from each team).
For all
f(x)≥ - 2.
∴The minimum value of f(x) = -2 when
And as so f(x) has
no maximum values.
(iii) f(x) = (x - 1)2 + 10
A(iii)
we have, f(x) = - (x - 1)2 + 10
For all
(x - 1)2 ≤ 0
-(x- 1)2 + 10 ≤ 10.
f(x) ≤ 10.
∴maximum value of f(x) = 10 when x - 1 = 0 x = 1.
And minimum value of f(x) does n

We have, y = f (x) = 3x2 + 15x + 5.
dy = (6x + 15) dx
Δy = (6x + 15) Δx.
Let, x = 3 and Δx = 0.02 then,
Δy = f (x + Δx) - f (x)
f (x + Δx) = f (x) + Δy = f (x) + (6x + 5) Δx.
f (3 + 0.02) = 3 (3)2 + 15 (3) + 5 + (6 * 3 + 15) (0.02).
f (3.02) = 27 + 45 + 5 + (18 + 15) (0.02).
= 77 + 0.66
= 77.66
∴ Option (D) is correct.
