extreme f(x)=(x^3)/((x-1)^2)

extreme points

f (x) = \frac{x ^{3}}{( x - 1 ) ^{2}}

Saddle (0, 0), Minimum (3, \frac{27}{4})

Solution steps

f^{'} (x) = \frac{x ^{2} ( x - 3 )}{( x - 1 ) ^{3}}

Find intervals:

Increasing

: - \infty < x < 0,

Increasing

: 0 < x < 1,

Decreasing

: 1 < x < 3,

Increasing

: 3 < x < \infty

Plug

x = 0

into

\frac{x ^{3}}{( x - 1 ) ^{2}} : 0

Saddle (0, 0)

Plug

x = 3

into

\frac{x ^{3}}{( x - 1 ) ^{2}} : \frac{27}{4}

Minimum (3, \frac{27}{4})

Saddle (0, 0), Minimum (3, \frac{27}{4})
