extreme f(x)=xe^{x/2}

extreme points

f (x) = x e^{\frac{x}{2}}

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

Solution steps

Find the critical points:

x = - 2

Domain of

x e^{\frac{x}{2}} : - \infty < x < \infty

Find intervals:

Decreasing

: - \infty < x < - 2,

Increasing

: - 2 < x < \infty

Plug the extreme point

x = - 2

into

x e^{\frac{x}{2}} \Rightarrow y = - \frac{2}{e}

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