Find the value of x for which the function f(x) = 2x3 - x2 - 4x + 4 has a maximum value
Answer Details
f(x) = 2x3 - x2 - 4x + 4 f(x) = 6x2 - 2x - 4 at turning point, f1(x) = 0 6x2 - 2x - 4 = 0, 3x2 - x - 2 = 0, 3x2 - 3x + 2x - 2 = 0 (3x + 2)(x - 1) = 0, x = -23 2 3 or 1 f11(x) = 12x - 2, when x = 23 2 3 , f11(x) = 12(-23 2 3 ) - 2 = -10 < 0
→ → f(x) is maximum @ x = -23 2 3 when x = 1, f11(x) = 12(1)- 2 = 10 > 0→ → f(x) is maximum @ x = 1
