Find the absolute maximum of x⁴⁰-x²⁰ on the interval [0,1] .
Options
- A-1 4
- B0
- C1 4
- D1 2
Correct answer
B. 0
Step-by-step solution
Let aligned f(x) & =x⁴⁰-x²⁰ f^ (x) & =40 x³⁹-20 x¹⁹ f^ (x) & =0 20 x¹⁹ (2 x²⁰-1 )=0 x & =0, x=1 f(0) & =0 f(1) & =0 aligned Maximum value of x⁴⁰-x²⁰ in [0,1] is 0 .
