the sum of three nonnegative numbers is 36, and one of the numbers is twice one of the other numbers. what is the maximum value of the product of these three num- bers?

Respuesta :

324 is the maximum value of the product of these three numbers

What is maxima and minima?

The curve of a function has peaks and troughs called maxima and minima. A function may have any number of maxima and minima. Calculus allows us to determine any function's maximum and lowest values without ever consulting the function's graph. Maxima will be the curve's highest point within the specified range, and minima will be its lowest.

The extrema of a function are the maxima and minima. The maximum and minimum values of a function inside the specified ranges are known as maxima and minima, respectively. Absolute maxima and absolute minima are terms used to describe the function's maximum and minimum values, respectively, over its full range.

Let the three nonnegative numbers are x,y,z

According to the question

x+y+z=36

and y=2x

therefore, 3x+z=36--------------------------------------------------(1)

z=36-3x

Let 3xz= u--------------------------------------------------------------(2)

differentiating equation 2

du/dx=3z + 3xdz/dx

or

du/dx= z + xdz/dx

differentiating equation 1

3 + dz/dx = 0

dz/dx = -3

du/dz = 36-3x + x(-3)

du/dx = 12 - 2x--------------------------------------------------------------(3)

for maxima put du/dx = 0

x=6-------------------------------------------------------------------------------(4)

again differentiating du/dx = 12 - 2x

d2u/dx2=-2

which means 3xz= u is maximum at x=6

from equation 1 and 4

we get 18+z=36

z=18

Therefore 3xz= 3(6)(18)=324
