extreme 1/3 x^3-1/2 x^2-2x

extreme

Maximum (- 1, \frac{7}{6}), Minimum (2, - \frac{10}{3})

Solution steps

f^{'} (x) = x^{2} - x - 2

Find intervals:

Increasing

: - \infty < x < - 1,

Decreasing

: - 1 < x < 2,

Increasing

: 2 < x < \infty

Plug

x = - 1

into

\frac{1}{3} x^{3} - \frac{1}{2} x^{2} - 2 x : \frac{7}{6}

Maximum (- 1, \frac{7}{6})

Plug

x = 2

into

\frac{1}{3} x^{3} - \frac{1}{2} x^{2} - 2 x : - \frac{10}{3}

Minimum (2, - \frac{10}{3})

Maximum (- 1, \frac{7}{6}), Minimum (2, - \frac{10}{3})
