extreme f(x)=x^4-4x^3+12

extreme

Saddle (0, 12), Minimum (3, - 15)

Solution steps

f^{'} (x) = 4 x^{3} - 12 x^{2}

Find intervals:

Decreasing

: - \infty < x < 0,

Decreasing

: 0 < x < 3,

Increasing

: 3 < x < \infty

Plug

x = 0

into

x^{4} - 4 x^{3} + 12 : 12

Saddle (0, 12)

Plug

x = 3

into

x^{4} - 4 x^{3} + 12 : - 15

Minimum (3, - 15)

Saddle (0, 12), Minimum (3, - 15)
