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

extreme

Minimum (- \frac{1}{2}, - \frac{1}{8}), Maximum (0, 0), Minimum (\frac{1}{2}, - \frac{1}{8})

Solution steps

f^{'} (x) = 8 x^{3} - 2 x

Find intervals:

Decreasing

: - \infty < x < - \frac{1}{2},

Increasing

: - \frac{1}{2} < x < 0,

Decreasing

: 0 < x < \frac{1}{2},

Increasing

: \frac{1}{2} < x < \infty

Plug

x = - \frac{1}{2}

into

2 x^{4} - x^{2} : - \frac{1}{8}

Minimum (- \frac{1}{2}, - \frac{1}{8})

Plug

x = 0

into

2 x^{4} - x^{2} : 0

Maximum (0, 0)

Plug

x = \frac{1}{2}

into

2 x^{4} - x^{2} : - \frac{1}{8}

Minimum (\frac{1}{2}, - \frac{1}{8})

Minimum (- \frac{1}{2}, - \frac{1}{8}), Maximum (0, 0), Minimum (\frac{1}{2}, - \frac{1}{8})
