Neither a local maimum nor a local minimum at = 6; = 6 is not a critical value of f. 63. f has a local maimum at = 2. EXERCISE 5-6 Things to remember: STRATEGY FOR SOLVING OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS Step 1. Introduce variables, look for relationships among these variables, and construct a mathematical model of the form: Maimize (or minimize) f() on the interval I Step 2. Find the critical values of f(). Step 3. Use the procedures developed in Section 5-5 to find the absolute maimum (or minimum) value of f() on the interval I and the value(s) of where this occurs. Step 4. Use the solution to the mathematical model to answer all the questions asked in the problem. 1. Let one length = and the other = Since neither length can be negative, we have 0 and 10-0, or 10. We want the maimum value of the product (10 - ), where Let f() = (10 - ) = 10-2 ; domain I = [0, 10] f'() = 10-2; = 5 is the only critical value f"() = -2 f"(5) = -2 < 0 Thus, f(5) = 25 is the absolute maimum; divide the line in half. 3. Let one number =. Then the other number = f() = ( + 30) = ; domain I = (-, ) f'() = ; = -15 is the only critical value f"() = 2 f"(-15) = 2 > 0 Thus, the absolute minimum of f occurs at = -15. The numbers, then, are -15 and = CHAPTER 5 GRAPHING AND OPTIMIZATION

10 5. Let = the length of the rectangle and y = the width of the rectangle. Then, 2 + 2y = y = 50 y = 50 - We want to find the maimum of the area: y y A() = y = (50 - ) = Since 0 and y 0, we must have [Note: A(0) = A(50) = 0.] A'() = da d = 50-2; = 25 is the only critical value. Now, A" = -2 and A"(25) = -2 < 0. Thus, A(25) is the absolute maimum. The maimum area is A(25) = 25(50-25) = 625 cm 2, which means that the rectangle is actually a square with sides measuring 25 cm each. 7. Let the rectangle of fied area A have dimensions and y. Then A = y and y = A. The cost of the fence is C = 2B + 2By = 2B + 2AB y, > 0 Thus, we want to find the absolute minimum of C() = 2B + 2AB, > 0 Since lim C() = lim C() =, and C() > 0 for all > 0, we can 0 " conclude that C has an absolute minimum on (0, ). This agrees with our intuition that there should be a cheapest way to build the fence. 9. Let and y be the dimensions of the rectangle and let C be the fied amount which can be spent. Then C = 2B + 2By and y = C 2B 2B The area enclosed by the fence is: # C " 2B & A = y = $ % 2B ' ( Thus, we want to find the absolute maimum value of A() = C 2B - 2, 0 C 2B " Since A() is a continuous function on the closed interval 0, C % # $ 2B & ', it has an absolute maimum value. This agrees with our intuition that there should be a largest rectangular area that can be enclosed with a fied amount of fencing. EXERCISE

The maimum profit is P(2,100) = 140(2,100) - (2,100)2-72,000 = $75, the price that the company should charge is p(2,100) = 200-2, = $130 for each set. 320 CHAPTER 5 GRAPHING AND OPTIMIZATION

Now, C(0) = (1.1) = 15.5, C(10) = (1.1) Therefore, the absolute minimum occurs when = 10 miles. 33. C(t) = 30t 2-240t + 500, 0 t 8 C'(t) = 60t - 240; t = 4 is the only critical value. C"(t) = 60 C"(4) = 60 > 0 Now, C(0) = 500 C(4) = 30(4) 2-240(4) = 20, C(8) = 30(8) 2-240(8) = 500. Thus, 4 days after a treatment, the concentration will be minimum; the minimum concentration is 20 bacteria per cm Let = the number of mice ordered in each order. Then the number of orders = 500. C() = Cost = [Note: Cost = cost of feeding + cost of order, (10) 2 is the average number of mice at any one time.] C() = , 0 < 500 C'() = = = 2(2 2500) 2( + 50)( 50) 2 = 2 Critical value: = 50 (-50 is not a critical value, since the domain of C is > 0.

17 37. H(t) = 4t 1/2-2t, 0 t 2 H'(t) = 2t -1/2-2 Thus, t = 1 is the only critical value. Now, H(0) = 4 0 1/2-2(0) = 0, H(1) = 4 1 1/2-2(1) = 2, H(2) = 4 2 1/ Therefore, H(1) is the absolute maimum, and after one month the maimum height will be 2 feet. 39. N(t) = t 2 - t 3, 0 t 8 The rate of increase = R(t) = N'(t) = 24t - 3t 2, and R'(t) = N"(t) = 24-6t. Thus, t = 4 is the only critical value of R(t). Now, R(0) = 0, R(4) = = 48, R(8) = = 0. Therefore, the absolute maimum value of R occurs when t = 4; the maimum rate of increase will occur four years from now. CHAPTER 5 REVIEW 1. The function f is increasing on (a, c 1 ), (c 3, c 6 ).
