f (x)=3sin4x-cos6x then find the difference of maximum and minimum

Answer»

sin(x) and cos(x) both have range [-1,1], it should be obvious that the value of:

sin2(x)∈[0,1]

sin4(x)∈[0,1]

3sin4(x)∈[0,3]

cos2(x)∈[0,1]

cos6(x)∈[0,1]

The maxm value of 3sin4(x) =3  (when x = (2n+1/2)π )
The minim value of 3sin4(x) = 0 (when x = nπ )

The maxm value of cos6(x) =1 (when x = nπ )
The minim value of cos6(x) = 0 (when x = (2n+1/2)π )

So, at x=nπ, 3sin4(x) has its minimum value and cos6(x)has its maximum value,
so for f(x) to be minimum value (= 0–1 = -1).

When x= (2n + 1/2)π, 3sin4(x) has its maximum value and cos6(x)has its minimum value,
so for f(x) to be maximum value (= 3–0 = 3).

Hence, the difference between the maximum and minimum values of f(x) = 4
