(d) f (x) = x3 −27 , if x =/ 3
Explanation:
A:
f (3) = 2
LHL: RHL:
lim− f (3 − h) lim+ f (3 + h)
x→3 x→3
⇒ lim 3−h+3
3 = 6
3 =2 ⇒ lim 3 + h − 1 = 2
h→0 h→0
∴ LHL = RHL = f(3)
f(x) is continuous.
B:
LHL:
lim− f (3 − h) = 8 − (3 − h)
x→3
=5+h
=5
LHL =/ f (3)
∴ f(x) is not continuous.
C:

=h−1
=− 1
RHL =/ f (3)
∴ f(x) is not continuous.

Given f (x) = x3 −27 is not defined when x=3, so f(x) is not continuous.
12) What is the maximum value of the function f (x) = x2 − 2x + 6 in the interval [0,3]?
(A) -9
(B) 9
(C) 7
(D) -7
Explanation:
Given f (x) = x2 − 2x + 6
In order to find max (or) min value, we need to find f(x) = 0
f'(x) = 2x – 2
⇒ 2x = 2
x=1
f''(x) = 2
∴ f''(x) > 0
(A) 0
(B) 1
(C) 2
(D) 3
Explanation:
x = 0, x2 − 4x + 4 = 0
2
(x − 2) = 0
x = 0, 2
At x=0:
f ′′(0) > 0
∴ f(x) has minimum value at x = 0
f(0) = 0 + 0 + 0 + 37 = 37
At x=2:
f ′′(2) = 0 and f ′′′(2) =/ 0
∴ f(x) has no extremum at x = 2
14) Find the points of local maxima and minima, of the function f (x) = x3 − 6x2 + 9x + 15 in
[0, 5].
(A) (1, 3)
(C) (-1, 3)
Explanation:
At x = 1:
f ′′(x) < 0
f ′′(1) < 0
−6<0
∴ f(x) has maximum at x = 1
f(1) = 1 – 6 + 9 + 15 = 19
At x = 3:
f ′′(x) > 0
18 − 12 > 0
6>0
∴ f(x) has minimum at x = 3
f(3) = 27 – 54 + 27 + 15 = 15
(A) -189
(B) -27
(C) 27
(D) 189
Explanation:
f (x) = x3 (x + 4) = x4 + 4x3
f ′(x) = 4x3 + 12x2
f ′′(x) = 12x2 + 24x
For finding maximum (or) minimum put f ′(x) = 0
⇒ 4x3 + 12x2 = 0
⇒ 4x2 (x + 3) = 0
x = 0 or − 3
f ′′(0) = 0
2
f ′′(− 3) = 12(− 3) + 24 × (− 3) = 108 − 72 = 36 > 0
∴ f(x) has local minimum at x = 3

f (− 3) = (− 3) (− 3 + 4) =− 27
16) Find the local maximum and local minimum if any, for the function f(x) = sin x + cos x,

(B) ( π2 , √2)
(C) (√2, π2 )
(D) ( π4 , √2)

f ′′(x) =− sinx − cosx
f ′′ ( π4 ) =− 1
√2
− 1
√2
= 1 − √2
f ′′(x) > 0

17) What is the maximum (or) minimum point for curve f (x) = 4x − x4 ?
Explanation:
Given f (x) = 4x − x4
⇒ f ′(x) = 4 − 4x3
⇒ f ′′(x) =− 12x2
x=1
At x = 1:
f(x) = 4 – 1 = 3
∴ Maximum (or) minimum at (1, 3)
π
18) Find the local maxima and minima for function f (x) = cos4x; 0 < x < 2
(A) -1
(B) 1
(C) -2
(D) 2
Explanation:
f (x) = cos4x
f ′(x) =− 4sin4x
f ′′(x) =− 16cos4x
To find stationary points, f'(x) = 0
⇒ -4 sin 4x = 0
sin 4x = 0
4x = 0, π , 2π [ since sin becomes zero when x =± nπ ]
4x = π
π
x= 4 [given x ∈ (0, π2 )]
π
At x = 4 :
f ′′( π4 ) =− 16cos4 · π
4 =− 16cosπ
=− 16(− 1) = 16 < 0
π
∴ f(x) has maximum at x = 4
Minimum value f ( π4 ) = cosπ =− 1

19) Find the local maximum and local minimum for function f (x) = 1+x2
Explanation:
x
f (x) = 1+x2
(1+x2 )·1−2x(x)
f ′(x) =
(1+x2 )
2 [ dxd ( uv ) = v·du−u·dv
v2 ]
1+x2 −2x2
= 2
(1+x2 )
1−x 2
= 2
(1+x2 )
For finding points of local maximum (or) minimum equate f ′(x) = 0
1−x2
⇒ 2 = 0
(1+x2 )
1 − x2 = 0
(1 + x)(1 − x) = 0
x = 1,− 1
2
(1+x2 ) (−2x)−(1−x2 )(2(1+x2 )2x)
f ′′(x) =
(1+x2 )
4 [ dxd ( uv ) = v·du−u·dv
v2 ]
At x=1:
(1+1)(−2)−(1−1)(2(1+1)2)
f ′′(x) = 4
(1+1)
−1−0 −1
= 16 = 4 <0
∴ At x = 1, f(x) has maximum value.
At x = -1:
(1+1)(2)−(1−1)(2(1+1)(−2))
f ′′(x) = 4
(1+1)
4 1
= 16 = 4 >0
