extreme x/(x^2+1)

Solution

extreme

Solution

Minimum (- 1, - \frac{1}{2}), Maximum (1, \frac{1}{2})

Solution steps

f^{'} (x) = \frac{- x ^{2} + 1}{( x ^{2} + 1 ) ^{2}}

Find intervals:

Decreasing

: - \infty < x < - 1,

Increasing

: - 1 < x < 1,

Decreasing

: 1 < x < \infty

Plug

x = - 1

into

\frac{x}{x ^{2} + 1} : - \frac{1}{2}

Minimum (- 1, - \frac{1}{2})

Plug

x = 1

into

\frac{x}{x ^{2} + 1} : \frac{1}{2}

Maximum (1, \frac{1}{2})

Minimum (- 1, - \frac{1}{2}), Maximum (1, \frac{1}{2})
