### Problem Statement

11. (10 points) Find the absolute extrema of the function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{6}x^2 - 10x + 200 \) on the interval \([0, 48]\). Give the extreme values and the inputs at which they occur.

### Questions

- \( f(x) \) has an absolute **maximum** of \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ at \( x = \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \).
- \( f(x) \) has an absolute **minimum** of \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ at \( x = \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \).

### Instructions

1. **Determine Critical Points:**
   - Find the derivative of \( f(x) \).
   - Solve \( f'(x) = 0 \) to find critical points.
   
2. **Evaluate Extreme Values:**
   - Calculate \( f(x) \) at the critical points and the endpoints \( x = 0 \) and \( x = 48 \).
   
3. **Identify Absolute Extrema:**
   - Compare the values from the previous step to determine the absolute maximum and minimum.
   
4. **Complete the Statements:**
   - Fill in the blanks with the correct values and \( x \)-coordinates.
