Grade 11Differential CalculusThe mimimum value of y=5x2 - 2x +1 is?? The answer is 4/5 but can you explain how? Sreshtha Das 9 Years agoGrade 11
Vikas TU8 Years agoDear Stdent,Given function as:y= 5x^2 – 2x + 1Differntiate it once and equate to zero. So, dy/dx = 10x -2 For minimum value 10x-2=0 Or, x= 1/5 So, y= 5x1/25 – 2x1/5 + 1 = 1/5-2/5+ 1 = 4/5.Cheers!!Regards,Vikas (B. Tech. 4th yearThapar University)
