Problem
Find the maximum value of the expression given below on the horizontal span of 0 to 8. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) 2x^2– e^x (Hint: Use a graph, nota table.)
Solution
For this case we have the following expression:
2x^2– e^x
If we do a graph for this equation we have:
And from this graph we can identify the maximum point as:
x= 2.153 and y= 0.66
