Apply maxima minima concept separately for f(x) and g(x), you ll get the solution to be 0

The function will not have global maxima as the function value will go to infinity. However, at two different values of x, local maxima having value 1/6 is associated with this function. the corresponding values of x are (1/2 + (root(5))/2), (1/2 - (root(5))/2).

After solving it, you will get that the maxima will occur at (rt5+1)/2 and the maximum value will be 1/6.

Consider the question to be in the form f(x)/g(x). Now it is very clear it will be maximum only when f(x) is max. and g(x) is minimum. Apply maxima minima concept separately for f(x) and g(x), you ll get the solution to be 0

It's around x = -0.555 which comes around 0.34
