A. Tell whether each given function has a solution on the indicated closed interval. Prove using the Intermediate value theorem.
1. f(x)=3x²+2x²;[-1,1]
2. f(x)= 2-x²/x²;[-3,-1]
B. Sketch the graph of the following functions and then find the absolute extreme values of each of the given interval.
1.f(x)=√x²-25;[5,10]
2. f(x)=-1/x²;[0.5,2]
C. A restaurant's profit function (in hundreds) for hamburgers is given by the function P such that P(x)=1.22x-x²/30,000-4,000,where 0≤x≤20,000.
1. How many hamburgers does the restaurant need to sell to yield the maximum profit?
2. What is the maximum profit from the sale of hamburger ?
Solution (A)
Given that
with in interval
Since
and
Therefore, according to IVT the function has a solution within the interval
The plot above shows that the function has a solution within the interval , which is
for the function
with in the interval , the plot is shown below
From the plot, the extreme values are
The maximum value is at
The minimum value is at
Now For the function
within the interval
The plot is shown below
From the plot, the extreme values are
The maximum value is at
The minimum value is at
with in the interval , the plot is showb below
From the plot,
The maximum profit is 7163
And the hamburger sold were 18300
