extreme f(x)=x^4-18x^2+4

extreme

Minimum (- 3, - 77), Maximum (0, 4), Minimum (3, - 77)

Solution steps

f^{'} (x) = 4 x^{3} - 36 x

Find intervals:

Decreasing

: - \infty < x < - 3,

Increasing

: - 3 < x < 0,

Decreasing

: 0 < x < 3,

Increasing

: 3 < x < \infty

Plug

x = - 3

into

x^{4} - 18 x^{2} + 4 : - 77

Minimum (- 3, - 77)

Plug

x = 0

into

x^{4} - 18 x^{2} + 4 : 4

Maximum (0, 4)

Plug

x = 3

into

x^{4} - 18 x^{2} + 4 : - 77

Minimum (3, - 77)

Minimum (- 3, - 77), Maximum (0, 4), Minimum (3, - 77)
