Questions
The difference between the greatest and least values of the function
detailed solution
Correct option is C
The given function is periodic, with period 2π. So the difference between the greatest and least values of the function is the difference between these values on the interval [0, 2π] . We have f′(x)=−(sinx+sin2x−sin3x)=−4sinxsin(3x/2)sin(x/2) Hence x=0,2π/3,π and 2π are the critical points. Also, f(0) = 1+1/2−1/3 = 7/6, f(2π/3) =−13/12, f(π) = −1/6 and f(2π) = 7/6.Hence the greatest value is 7/6 and the least value is −13/12 . Thus the difference is 76 − (−1312) = 2712 = 94Talk to our academic expert!
