fx=x3+3x-9,
f'(x)=3x2+3  fx>0 
in [5,3] then f(x) is increasing function on [5,3]  
  f(x)  have greatest value at x=3 
 f(x)=(3)3+3(3)9=27
  Let a,ar,ar2.......  be a G.P. with common ratio |r|<1
S=27  (given)  
a1r=27  ............(1) 
 aar=f'(0)  a(1r)=f'(0)=3    .........(2)  
   (2)(1)  a(1r)a(1r)=327
(1r)2=19  1r=±13
r=1±13=43,23(|r|<1    r43) 
  r=23
