Question Number 153252 by liberty last updated on 06/Sep/21

Answered by MJS_new last updated on 06/Sep/21

y′′=0  ((2ax(x^2 −3b))/((x^2 +b)^3 ))=0  ⇒ x=0∨x=±(√(3b))∨a=0 (rejected)  2=(√(3b)) ⇒ b=(4/3)  (5/2)=((2a)/(4+(4/3))) ⇒ a=((20)/3)

$${y}''=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{2}{ax}\left({x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{3}{b}\right)}{\left({x}^{\mathrm{2}} +{b}\right)^{\mathrm{3}} }=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:{x}=\mathrm{0}\vee{x}=\pm\sqrt{\mathrm{3}{b}}\vee{a}=\mathrm{0}\:\left(\mathrm{rejected}\right) \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}=\sqrt{\mathrm{3}{b}}\:\Rightarrow\:{b}=\frac{\mathrm{4}}{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{2}}=\frac{\mathrm{2}{a}}{\mathrm{4}+\frac{\mathrm{4}}{\mathrm{3}}}\:\Rightarrow\:{a}=\frac{\mathrm{20}}{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$

thank you. i don′t understand  a flex point. it is same to sadle  point sir?

no.  at a flex point the curvature changes  y=ax^3 +bx^2 +cx+d  y′=3ax^2 +2bx+c       2 real solutions            y has 1 min, 1 max and 1 flex point       1 real solution            y has no min/max but 1 flex point with            y′=0, sometimes called flat point       2 complex solutions            y has no min/max but 1 flex point  y′′=6ax+2b       y′=0∧y′′>0 ⇒ min       y′=0∧y′′<0 ⇒ max       y′=0∧y′′=0 ⇒ flat point       y′≠0∧y′′=0 ⇒ flex point    a function with y′=y′′=y′′′=0 has a saddle point  that′s what I once learned, maybe some call  a flat point a saddle point...
