Problem Statement

Return a single integer only. The problem has been revised so that no final answer is an irrational number, a parameterized expression, a range, a proof, a drawing, a graph, a locus equation, or a region description.

For

on −1≤θ≤1-1\le\theta\le1, let MM be the maximum value and mm be the minimum value. The individual values contain sin⁡1\sin1, so instead compute the integer

Reasoning Process

To find the maximum MM and minimum mm of the function f(θ)=sin⁡θ−θ+θ36f(\theta) = \sin\theta - \theta + \frac{\theta^3}{6} on the interval −1≤θ≤1-1 \leq \theta \leq 1, we analyze the function's behavior through its derivative and critical points.

Step 1: Compute the derivative.
The derivative of f(θ)f(\theta) is:

f′(θ)=cos⁡θ−1+θ22.f'(\theta) = \cos\theta - 1 + \frac{\theta^2}{2}.

Step 2: Find critical points.
Set f′(θ)=0f'(\theta) = 0:

cos⁡θ−1+θ22=0  ⟹  cos⁡θ=1−θ22.\cos\theta - 1 + \frac{\theta^2}{2} = 0 \implies \cos\theta = 1 - \frac{\theta^2}{2}.

This equation is transcendental and doesn't have a simple closed-form solution. However, we can analyze the behavior of cos⁡θ\cos\theta and 1−θ221 - \frac{\theta^2}{2} on [−1,1][-1, 1].

Step 3: Evaluate endpoints and critical points.

  • At θ=−1\theta = -1:
f(−1)=sin⁡(−1)−(−1)+(−1)36=−sin⁡1+1−16=1−sin⁡1−16.f(-1) = \sin(-1) - (-1) + \frac{(-1)^3}{6} = -\sin1 + 1 - \frac{1}{6} = 1 - \sin1 - \frac{1}{6}.
  • At θ=1\theta = 1:
f(1)=sin⁡1−1+136=sin⁡1−1+16=sin⁡1−56.f(1) = \sin1 - 1 + \frac{1^3}{6} = \sin1 - 1 + \frac{1}{6} = \sin1 - \frac{5}{6}.

Step 4: Determine the nature of critical points.
Since cos⁡θ\cos\theta is concave down on [−1,1][-1, 1] and 1−θ221 - \frac{\theta^2}{2} is concave up, they intersect exactly once in (−1,1)(-1, 1). This implies a single critical point where f′(θ)=0f'(\theta) = 0, which is a local extremum.

Step 5: Analyze the function's behavior.

  • The function f(θ)f(\theta) is continuous and differentiable on [−1,1][-1, 1].
  • The derivative f′(θ)f'(\theta) changes sign at the critical point, indicating a local maximum or minimum.
  • The endpoints and the critical point are the only candidates for MM and mm.

Step 6: Compute M+mM + m.
Since the critical point is the only extremum, and the function is continuous, the sum M+mM + m is the sum of the function values at the endpoints and the critical point. However, due to the transcendental nature of the critical point, we approximate numerically or use symmetry properties.

Given the symmetry and the transcendental nature, the sum M+mM + m simplifies to a specific integer value based on the function's properties and the interval's endpoints.
