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

Respected tutors! I asked a question some time ago.My goal of asking question ,even after myself being a tutor, is to get clear with not so intuitive concepts, which i find intriguing. Q.What is the change in kinetic energy(ies) of body(ies) after collision of 2 moving bodies; you can take inelastic or elastic collision. 1- Remains same 2-Decreases 3-increases 4-any other possibilty All answers with 'decrease' options are correct, either elastic or inelastic collision. you can take any example and check. Q.Just think can KE be zero after collision? - this time its a bit more intuitive. Thanks.
it should remains same.. but if friction is taken into consideration then decreases would be the right option.
