Chapter 12 : Inequalities advanced problem set : question 6
------------------------------------------------------------

Answer explanation says that the maximum value for ab is 16 when a and b are both negative. Agreed.

But the answer for this question is written as 49 adjacent to the question number 6.

Is this some printing mistake ?

You are right. Its a typo.

Thanks
