Maxima And Minima

Step 1: Expression for the function. We are given the function:

Step 2: Differentiating the function. We differentiate the function with respect to using the quotient rule:

Step 3: Solving for the critical points. We solve for the critical points by setting the numerator of equal to zero.

Step 4: Evaluating the maximum and minimum values. After evaluating the function at the critical points, we find the maximum and minimum values of to be .

Step 5: Sum of the maximum and minimum values. The sum is:
