$A$ ball is thrown in the air. Its height at any time $t$ is given by $h = 3 + 14t - 5t^2$. What is the maximum height it can reach?

If $m$ and $M$ are the absolute minimum and absolute maximum values of the function $f(x) = 2\sqrt{2} \sin x - \tan x$ in the interval $[0, \pi/3]$,then $m + M =$

The set of value$(s)$ of $a$ for which the function $f(x) = \frac{a x^3}{3} + (a + 2) x^2 + (a - 1) x + 2$ possesses a negative point of inflection.

Let $f(x) = x^2 + \frac{1}{x^2}$ and $g(x) = x - \frac{1}{x}$,$x \in R - \{-1, 1, 0\}$. If $h(x) = \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}$,then the local minimum value of $h(x)$ is:

An open-topped box is to be constructed by removing equal squares from each corner of a $3 \text{ m}$ by $8 \text{ m}$ rectangular sheet of aluminium and folding up the sides. Find the volume of the largest such box.

The number of points in $(-\infty, \infty)$ for which $x^2 - x \sin x - \cos x = 0$ is
