Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Find the domain of the function
For the function (g(x)=x\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}), the expression under the square - root must be non - negative. So, (8-x^{2}\geq0), which can be factored as ((2\sqrt{2}+x)(2\sqrt{2}-x)\geq0). The solutions of the inequality are (x\in[- 2\sqrt{2},2\sqrt{2}]).
Step2: Find the derivative of the function
Using the product rule ((uv)^\prime = u^\prime v+uv^\prime), where (u = x) and (v=\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}=(8 - x^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}). (u^\prime=1) and (v^\prime=\frac{1}{2}(8 - x^{2})^{-\frac{1}{2}}\times(-2x)=\frac{-x}{\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}}). Then (g^\prime(x)=\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}+x\times\frac{-x}{\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}}=\frac{8 - x^{2}-x^{2}}{\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}}=\frac{8 - 2x^{2}}{\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}}).
Step3: Find the critical points
Set (g^\prime(x) = 0), then (\frac{8 - 2x^{2}}{\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}}=0). Since the denominator (\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}\gt0) for (x\in(-2\sqrt{2},2\sqrt{2})), we solve (8 - 2x^{2}=0). (2x^{2}=8), (x^{2} = 4), (x=\pm2). The critical points are (x=-2) and (x = 2).
Step4: Determine the intervals of increase and decrease
- Test the interval ((-2\sqrt{2},-2)): Let (x=-3) (but (x=-3\notin[-2\sqrt{2},2\sqrt{2}])), let's take (x=-2.5) (not valid). Instead, use the fact that for (x\in(-2\sqrt{2},-2)), pick (x=- \sqrt{3}). (g^\prime(-\sqrt{3})=\frac{8-2\times3}{\sqrt{8 - 3}}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}\gt0).
- Test the interval ((-2,2)): Let (x = 0), (g^\prime(0)=\frac{8-0}{\sqrt{8}}=\sqrt{8}\gt0) (wrong, recalculate). Let's use the formula (g^\prime(x)=\frac{8 - 2x^{2}}{\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}}). For (x\in(-2,2)), (g^\prime(x)=\frac{8 - 2x^{2}}{\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}}). When (x = 0), (g^\prime(0)=\frac{8}{\sqrt{8}}=\sqrt{8}) (error). Correctly, (g^\prime(x)=\frac{8 - 2x^{2}}{\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}}). If (x=-1), (g^\prime(-1)=\frac{8 - 2}{\sqrt{8 - 1}}=\frac{6}{\sqrt{7}}\gt0) (wrong). Wait, (g^\prime(x)=\frac{8 - 2x^{2}}{\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}}). The sign of (g^\prime(x)) is determined by the numerator (y = 8 - 2x^{2}). The function (y = 8 - 2x^{2}) is a parabola opening downwards ((a=-2)) with (y = 0) at (x=\pm2). For (x\in(-2\sqrt{2},-2)), pick (x=-2.5) (invalid). Use the derivative formula: (g^\prime(x)=\frac{8 - 2x^{2}}{\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}}). The sign of (g^\prime(x)) is same as the sign of (8 - 2x^{2}). If (x\in(-2\sqrt{2},-2)), let (x=-2.5) (not in domain). Let's use the interval method: The critical points are (x=-2) and (x = 2). For (x\in(-2\sqrt{2},-2)), take a test point (x=-3) (invalid). Let's use the fact that (y = 8 - 2x^{2}) is positive when (|x|\lt2) and negative when (|x|\gt2) (within the domain (x\in[-2\sqrt{2},2\sqrt{2}])). (g(x)) is increasing on ((-2\sqrt{2},-2)) and ((-2,2)) (error). Wait, (g^\prime(x)=\frac{8 - 2x^{2}}{\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}}). (g^\prime(x)\gt0) when (8 - 2x^{2}\gt0) (since (\sqrt{8 - x^{2}}\gt0) for (x\in(-2\sqrt{2},2\sqrt{2}))), (x^{2}\lt4), (x\in(-2,2)). (g^\prime(x)\lt0) when (8 - 2x^{2}\lt0), (x^{2}\gt4), (x\in(-2\sqrt{2},-2)\cup(2,2\sqrt{2})).
Step5: Find the local and absolute extreme values
- Local maxima and minima: Since (g(x)) changes from increasing to decreasing at (x = 2) (because (g^\prime(x)) changes from positive to negative at (x = 2)), (g(2)=2\sqrt{8 - 4}=4). Since (g(x)) changes from decreasing to increasing at (x=-2) (because (g^\prime(x)) changes from negative to positive at (x=-2)), (g(-2)=-2\sqrt{8 - 4}=-4).
- Absolute maxima and minima: We also need to check the endpoints. (g(-2\sqrt{2})=-2\sqrt{2}\times0 = 0) and (g(2\sqrt{2})=2\sqrt{2}\times0 = 0).
Answer:
a. The function (g(x)) is increasing on the interval ((-2,2)) and decreasing on the intervals ((-2\sqrt{2},-2)) and ((2,2\sqrt{2})). b. The local maximum value is (g(2)=4), the local minimum value is (g(-2)=-4). The absolute maximum value is (g(2) = 4) and the absolute minimum value is (g(-2)=-4).
