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

extreme points

f (x) = x^{3} (x + 4)

Minimum (- 3, - 27), Saddle (0, 0)

Solution steps

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

Find intervals:

Decreasing

: - \infty < x < - 3,

Increasing

: - 3 < x < 0,

Increasing

: 0 < x < \infty

Plug

x = - 3

into

x^{3} (x + 4) : - 27

Minimum (- 3, - 27)

Plug

x = 0

into

x^{3} (x + 4) : 0

Saddle (0, 0)

Minimum (- 3, - 27), Saddle (0, 0)

What is the extreme f(x)=x^3(x+4) ?
The extreme f(x)=x^3(x+4) is Minimum(-3,-27),Saddle(0,0)
