• Worksheet S-47 #3
• y = x3 + 1.5x2 – 6x – 3
Find where the gradient is equal to zero.
Maximum vs. Minimum
• If f ’(p)=0, then p is a max or min.– p is a maximum if f ’(x) is ________ to the left of p
and ________ to the right of p.– p is a minimum if f ’(x) is ________ to the left of p
and ________ to the right of p.

Worksheet S-47 #4, 5
• At a maximum or minimum tangent line is horizontal derivative is zero.
• We can use that information to find the maximum and minimum of a real-world situation.
Section 19JK - Optimization
A sheet of thin card 50 cm by 100 cm has a square of side x cm cut away from each corner and the sides folded up to
make a rectangular open box.
See animation in HL book, page 653
a) Find the volume, V, of the box in terms of x.b) Using calculus, find the value of x which gives
a maximum volume of the box.c) Find this maximum volume.
Example 1
A rectangular piece of card measures 24 cm by 9 cm. Equal squares of length x cm are cut from each corner of the card as
shown in the diagram below. What is left is then folded to make an open box, of length l cm and width w cm.
• (a) Write expressions, in terms of x, for• (i) the length, l;• (ii) the width, w.• (b) Show that the volume (B m3) of the box is given
by B = 4x3 – 66x2 + 216x.• (c) Find .• (d) (i) Find the value of x which gives the
maximum volume of the box.• (ii) Calculate the maximum volume of the box.
Example 2
A rectangle has width x cm and length y cm. It has a constant area 20 cm2.– Write down an equation involving x, y and 20.– Express the perimeter, P, in terms of x only.– Find the value of x which makes the perimeter a
minimum and find this minimum perimeter.
Example 3
An open rectangular box is made from thin cardboard. The base is 2x cm long and x cm wide and the volume is 50 cm3. Let the height be h cm.
See animation in HL book, page 653
a) Write down an equation involving 50, x, and h.b) Show that the area, y cm2, of cardboard used is given
by y = 2x2 + 150x – 1 c) Find the value of x that makes the area a minimum
and find the minimum area of cardboard used.
