Given,
• The two numbers are positive.

Let us consider,
• x and y are the two numbers, such that x > 0 and y > 0
• Product of the numbers : x × y = 49
• Sum of the numbers : S = x + y
Now as,
x × y = 49
------ (1)
Consider,
S = x + y
By substituting (1), we have
------ (2)
For finding the maximum/ minimum of given function, we can find it by differentiating it with x and then equating it to zero. This is because if the function f(x) has a maximum/minimum at a point c then f’(c) = 0.
Differentiating the equation (2) with x
----- (3)
[Since and ]
Now equating the first derivative to zero will give the critical point c.
So,
= x2 = 49
As x > 0, then x = 7
Now, for checking if the value of S is maximum or minimum at x=7, we will perform the second differentiation and check the value ofat the critical value x = 7.
Performing the second differentiation on the equation (3) with respect to x.
[Since and ]
Now when x = 7,
As second differential is positive, hence the critical point x = 7 will be the minimum point of the function S.
Therefore, the function S = sum of the two numbers is minimum at x = 7.
From Equation (1), if x= 7
Therefore, x = 7 and y = 7 are the two positive numbers whose product is 49 and the sum is minimum.
Find two positive numbers whose sum is 16 and the sum of whose squares is minimum.
Given,

Let us consider,
• x and y are the two numbers, such that x > 0 and y > 0
• Sum of the numbers : x + y = 16
• Sum of squares of the numbers : S = x2 + y2
Now as,
x + y = 16
y = (16-x) ------ (1)
Consider,
S = x2 + y2
By substituting (1), we have
S = x2 + (16-y)2 ------ (2)
For finding the maximum/ minimum of given function, we can find it by differentiating it with x and then equating it to zero. This is because if the function f(x) has a maximum/minimum at a point c then f’(c) = 0.
Differentiating the equation (2) with x
----- (3)
[Since ]
Now equating the first derivative to zero will give the critical point c.
So,
⇒ 2x – 2(16 -x) = 0
⇒ 2x – 32 + 2x = 0
= 4x = 32
⇒ x = 8
As x > 0, x = 8
Now, for checking if the value of S is maximum or minimum at x=8, we will perform the second differentiation and check the value ofat the critical value x = 8.
Performing the second differentiation on the equation (3) with respect to x.
[Since and ]
Now when x = 8,
As second differential is positive, hence the critical point x = 8 will be the minimum point of the function S.
Therefore, the function S = sum of the squares of the two numbers is minimum at x = 8.
From Equation (1), if x= 8
y = 16 – 8 = 8
Therefore, x = 8 and y = 8 are the two positive numbers whose su is 16 and the sum of the squares is minimum.

Let us consider,
• x and y are the two numbers
• Sum of the numbers : x + y = 15
• Product of square of the one number and cube of anther number : P = x3 y2
Now as,
x + y = 15
y = (15-x) ------ (1)
Consider,
P = x3y2
By substituting (1), we have
P = x3 × (15-x)2 ------ (2)
For finding the maximum/ minimum of given function, we can find it by differentiating it with x and then equating it to zero. This is because if the function f(x) has a maximum/minimum at a point c then f’(c) = 0.
Differentiating the equation (2) with x
[Since and if u and v are two functions of x, then ]
= 3×[152 – 2× (15)×(x) + x2] x2 + x3(2x-30)
= x2[3× (225 – 30x + x2)+ x (2x - 30)]
= x2[ 675– 90x + 3x2+ 2x2 – 60x]
= x2[5x2 – 120x + 675]
= 5x2 [x2 – 24x + 135] ----- (3)
Now equating the first derivative to zero will give the critical point c.
So,
Hence 5x2 = 0 (or) x2 – 24x + 135 = 0
x = 0 (or)
x = 0 (or)
x = 0 (or)
x = 0 (or)
x = 0 (or) (or)
x = 0 (or) (or)
x = 0 (or) x = 15 (or) x = 9
Now considering the critical values of x = 0,9,15
Now, for checking if the value of P is maximum or minimum at x=0,9,15, we will perform the second differentiation and check the value ofat the critical value x = 0,9,15.
Performing the second differentiation on the equation (3) with respect to x.
= (x2 – 24x + 135) (5 × 2x) + 5x2 (2x – 24 + 0)
[Since and and if u and v are two functions of x, then ]
= (x2 – 24x + 135) (10x) + 5x2 (2x – 24)
= 10x3 – 240x2 + 1350x + 10x3 – 120x2
= 20x3 – 360x2 + 1350x
= 5x (4x2 – 72x + 270)
Now when x = 0,
= 0
So, we reject x = 0
Now when x = 15,
= 65 [(4 × 225) –1080+ 270]
= 65 [900– 1080+ 270]
= 65 [1170– 1080]
= 65× (90) > 0
Hence , so at x = 15, the function P is minimum
Now when x = 9,
= 45 [(4 × 81) – 648 + 270]
= 45 [324 – 648 + 270]
= 45 [594 – 648]
= 45 × (-54)
= -2430 < 0
As second differential is negative, hence at the critical point x = 9 will be the maximum point of the function P.
Therefore, the function P is maximum at x = 9.
From Equation (1), if x= 9
y = 15 – 9 = 6
Therefore, x = 9 and y = 6 are the two positive numbers whose sum is 15 and the product of the square of one number and cube of another number is maximum.
Divide 8 into two positive parts such that the sum of the square of one and the cube of the other is minimum.
Given,

Let us consider,
• x and y are the two numbers
• Sum of the numbers : x + y = 8
• Product of square of the one number and cube of anther number : S = x3 + y2
Now as,
x + y = 8
y = (8-x) ------ (1)
Consider,
S = x3 + y2
By substituting (1), we have
S = x3 + (8-x)2 ------ (2)
For finding the maximum/ minimum of given function, we can find it by differentiating it with x and then equating it to zero. This is because if the function f(x) has a maximum/minimum at a point c then f’(c) = 0.
Differentiating the equation (2) with x
[Since ]

Now equating the first derivative to zero will give the critical point c.
So,
Hence 3x2 + 2x - 16= 0
(or)
(or)
x = 2 (or) x = -2.67
Now considering the critical values of x = 2,-2.67
Now, for checking if the value of P is maximum or minimum at x=2,-2.67, we will perform the second differentiation and check the value ofat the critical value x = 2,-2.67.
Performing the second differentiation on the equation (3) with respect to x.
= 3 (2x) + 2 (1) - 0
[Since and ]
= 6x + 2
Now when x = -2.67,
= - 16.02 + 2 = -14.02
At x = -2.67 hence, the function S will be maximum at this point.
Now consider x = 2,
= 12 + 2 = 14
Hence , so at x = 2, the function S is minimum
As second differential is positive, hence at the critical point x = 2 will be the maximum point of the function S.
Therefore, the function S is maximum at x = 2.
From Equation (1), if x= 2
y = 8 – 2 = 6
Therefore, x = 2 and y = 6 are the two positive numbers whose sum is 8 and the sum of the square of one number and cube of another number is maximum.
Divide a into two parts such that the product of the pth power of one part and the qth power of the second part may be maximum.
Given,

Let us consider,
• x and y are the two numbers
• Sum of the numbers : x + y = a
• Product of square of the one number and cube of anther number : P = xp yq
Now as,
x + y = a
y = (a-x) ------ (1)
Consider,
P = xpyq
By substituting (1), we have
P = xp × (a-x)q ------ (2)
For finding the maximum/ minimum of given function, we can find it by differentiating it with x and then equating it to zero. This is because if the function f(x) has a maximum/minimum at a point c then f’(c) = 0.
Differentiating the equation (2) with x
[Since and if u and v are two functions of x, then ]
= xp-1(a-x)q-1[ap-xp-xq]
= xp-1(a-x)q-1[ap – x (p+q)] ----- (3)
Now equating the first derivative to zero will give the critical point c.
So,
Hence xp-1 = 0 (or) (a-x)q-1 (or) ap– x(p+q)= 0
x = 0 (or) x = a (or)
Now considering the critical values of x = 0,a and
Now, using the First Derivative test,
For f, a continuous function which has a critical point c, then, function has the local maximum at c, if f’(x) changes the sign from positive to negative as x increases through c, i.e. f’(x)>0 at every point close to the left of c and f’(x)<0 at every point close to the right of c.
Now when x = 0,
So, we reject x = 0
Now when x = a,
Hence we reject x = a
Now when ,

By using first derivative test, from (4) and (5), we can conclude that, the function P has local maximum at
From Equation (1), if
Therefore, and are the two positive numbers whose sum together to give the number ‘a’ and whose product of the pth power of one number and qth power of the other number is maximum.

We know that if the slope of curve at two different point is
equal then straight lines are parallel at that points.
Find the equation of the tangent to the curve , where is parallel to the line .
We know that if two straight lines are parallel then their slope
are equal. So, slope of required tangent is also equal to 4.

y – (-11) = 4(x – (-6))
4x – y + 13 = 0
At what point on the curve , is the tangent parallel to the y-axis?
If the tangent is parallel to y-axis it means that it’s slope is
not defined or 1/0.
2y – 4 = 0 ⇒ y = 2
x2 + (2)2 – 2x – 4(2) + 1 = 0

We know that if the slope of two tangent of a curve are satisfies a relation m1m2 = -1, then tangents are at right angles
m1 at (2, 0) = -1
m2 at (3, 0) = 1
m1m2 = (-1)(1) = -1
So, we can say that tangent at (2, 0) and (3, 0) are at right angles.
Find the point on the curve at which the tangent passes through the origin.
If tangent is pass through origin it means that equation of tangent is y = mx
Let us suppose that tangent is made at point (x1, y1)
y1 = x12 + 3x1 + 4 …(1)
m at (x1, y1) = 2x1 + 3
Equation of tangent : y1 = (2x1 + 3)x1 …(2)
On compairing eq(1) and eq(2)
x12 + 3x1 + 4 = (2x1 + 3)x1
x12 – 4 = 0 ⇒ x1 = 2 and -2
At x1 = 2, y1 = 14
At x1 = -2, y1 = 2
So, required points are (2, 14) and (-2, 2)
Find the point on the curve at which the equation of tangent is .
Slope of y = x – 11 is equal to 1
3x2 – 11 = 1 ⇒ x = 2 and -2
At x = 2
From the equation of curve, y = (2)3 – 11(2) + 5 = -9
From the equation of tangent, y = 2 – 11 = -9
At x = -2
From the equation of curve, y = (-2)3 – 11(-2) + 5 = 19
From the equation of tangent, y = -2 – 11 = -13

If the two curve touch each other then the tangent at their intersecting point formed a angle of 0.
We have to find the intersecting point of these two curves.
xy = a2 and x2 + y2 = 2a2
⇒
⇒ x4 – 2a2x2 + a4 = 0
⇒ (x2 – a2) = 0
⇒ x = +a and -a
At x = a, y = a
At x = -a, y = -a
m1 at (a, a) = -1
m1 at (-a, -a) = -1
m2 at (a, a) = -1
m2 at (-a, -a) = -1
At (a, a)
⇒ θ = 0
At (-a, -a)

So, we can say that two curves touch each other because the angle between two tangent at their intersecting point is equal to 0.

If the two curve cut orthogonally then angle between their tangent at intersecting point is equal to 90⁰.
We have to find their intersecting point.
x3 – 3xy2 + 2 = 0 …(1) and 3x2y – y3 – 2 = 0 …(2)
On adding eq (1) and eq (2)
x3 – 3xy2 + 2 + 3x2y – y3 – 2 = 0
x3 – y3 – 3xy2 + 3x2y = 0
(x – y)3 = 0 ⇒ x = y
Put x = y in eq (1)
y3 – 3y3 + 2 = 0 ⇒ y = 1
At y = 1, x = 1
m1 at (1, 1) = 0
m2 at (1, 1) = -2/0
At (1, 1)
