Xe^(-x^2/128) absolute max and absolute min

Mathematics
1 answer:

f(x)=xe^{-x^2/128}
\implies f'(x)=e^{-x^2/128}+x\left(-\dfrac{2x}{128}\right)e^{-x^2/128}=\left(1-\dfrac1{64}x^2\right)e^{-x^2/128}

Extrema can occur when the derivative is zero or undefined.

\left(1-\dfrac1{64}x^2\right)e^{-x^2/128}=0\implies 1-\dfrac1{64}x^2=0\implies x^2=64\implies x=\pm8

Maxima occur where the first derivative is zero and the second derivative is negative; minima where the second derivative is positive. You have

f''(x)=-\dfrac1{32}xe^{-x^2/128}+\left(1-\dfrac1{64}x^2\right)\left(-\dfrac{2x}{128}\right)e^{-x^2/128}=\left(-\dfrac3{64}x+\dfrac1{4096}x^3\right)e^{-x^2/128}

At the critical points, you get

f''(-8)=\dfrac1{4\sqrt e}>0
f''(8)=-\dfrac1{4\sqrt e}

So you have a minimum at \left(-8,-\dfrac8{\sqrt e}\right) and a maximum at \left(8,\dfrac8{\sqrt e}\right).

Meanwhile, as x\to\pm\infty, it's clear that f(x)\to0, so these extrema are absolute on the function's domain.

<span>X/2 = 4/16

This is where you would use cross-multiplication.
Multiply the x with 16 and the 2 with 4.

16x = 8

Now divide everything by 16.
x = 0.5</span>

Verify the identity. 4 csc 2x = 2 csc2x tan x
vlada-n [284]

Step-by-step explanation:

4csc(2x) = 2csc^2(x) tan(x)

We start with Left hand side

We know that csc(x) = 1/ sin(x)

So csc(2x) is replaced by 1/sin(2x)

4 \frac{1}{sin(2x)}

Also we use identity

sin(2x) = 2 sin(x) cos(x)

4 \frac{1}{2sin(x)cos(x)}

4 divide by 2 is 2

Now we multiply top and bottom by sin(x) because we need tan(x) in our answer

2\frac{1*sin(x)}{sin(x)cos(x)*sin(x)}

2\frac{sin(x)}{sin^2(x)cos(x)}

2\frac{1}{sin^2(x)} \frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}

We know that sinx/ cosx = tan(x)

Also  1/ sin(x)= csc(x)

so it becomes 2csc^2(x) tan(x) , Right hand side

Hence verified
