  Find min value     f(x)= (x+4)(x+5)(x+6)(x+7)

$$\:\:\mathrm{Find}\:\mathrm{min}\:\mathrm{value}\: \\ $$$$\:\:{f}\left({x}\right)=\:\left({x}+\mathrm{4}\right)\left({x}+\mathrm{5}\right)\left({x}+\mathrm{6}\right)\left({x}+\mathrm{7}\right) \\ $$

(x+4)(x+7)(x+5)(x+6)  (x^2 +11x+28)(x^2 +11x+30)  (a+28)(a+30)    [let a=x^2 +11x]  a^2 +58a+840  (a+29)^2 −29^2 +840  (a+29)^2 −1  (a+29)^2 ≥0  (a+29)^2 −1≥−1  ∴(x+4)(x+5)(x+6)(x+7)≥−1  ∴ min value of  f(x) is −1

let   x+((11)/2)=t  f(t)=(t−(3/2))(t−(1/2))(t+(1/2))(t+(3/2))  =(t^2 −(9/4))(t^2 −(1/4))  let  t^2 −(5/4)=z  f(z)=z^2 −1  f(z)∣_(min) =−1  when   t=x+((11)/2)=±((√5)/2)     x=((−11±(√5))/2)

$${let}\:\:\:{x}+\frac{\mathrm{11}}{\mathrm{2}}={t} \\ $$$${f}\left({t}\right)=\left({t}−\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}}\right)\left({t}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\right)\left({t}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\right)\left({t}+\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}}\right) \\ $$$$=\left({t}^{\mathrm{2}} −\frac{\mathrm{9}}{\mathrm{4}}\right)\left({t}^{\mathrm{2}} −\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}\right) \\ $$$${let}\:\:{t}^{\mathrm{2}} −\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{4}}={z} \\ $$$${f}\left({z}\right)={z}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{1} \\ $$$${f}\left({z}\right)\mid_{{min}} =−\mathrm{1} \\ $$$${when}\:\:\:{t}={x}+\frac{\mathrm{11}}{\mathrm{2}}=\pm\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\:\:\:{x}=\frac{−\mathrm{11}\pm\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$
