I got it down to the where the derivative is 0=x+2xlnx; then 陆=lnx.
Any help would be muchly appreciated.What's are the critical numbers the function f(x) = x虏lnx?
f(x) = x虏lnx
f'(x) = 2xlnx + x虏/x
f'(x) = 2xlnx + x
f'(x) = x(2lnx + 1)
Critical values are at f'(x) = 0. The impled solutions are:
0 = x(2lnx + 1)
x = 0 or 2lnx + 1 = 0
x = 0 or 2lnx = 鈥?
x = 0 or lnx = 鈥韭?br>
x = 0 or x = e鈥韭?
Since lnx is undefined for x=0, only the x = e鈥韭?root is valid.What's are the critical numbers the function f(x) = x虏lnx?
I think you mean lnx=-1/2. This means that x=e^(-1/2).
