Class 12 Maths · Applications Of Derivatives · Conceptual Answer #92

The function f(x)=x⁴−62x²+ax+9 attains its maximum on [0,2] at x=1. Find a.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: a=120
  1. The interior extremum requires f′(1)=4−124+a=0, so a=120. For this a, f′=4(x−1)(x+6)(x−5), positive on [0,1) and negative on (1,2], verifying the maximum.
  2. a=120
