Explanation Given: The function is f ( x ) = − 4 3 x 3 + x 2 + 30 x − 7 . Calculation: Solve the given function: f ( x ) = − 4 3 x 3 + x 2 + 30 x − 7 Differentiate the above function: f ′ ( x ) = − 4 x 2 + 2 x + 30 Substitute 0 for f ′ ( x ) : − 4 x 2 + 2 x + 30 = 0 − 4 x 2 + 12 x − 10 x + 30 = 0 − 4 x ( x − 3 ) − 10 ( x − 3 ) = 0 ( − 4 x − 10 ) ( x − 3 ) = 0 The first critical number is: − 4 x − 10 = 0 x = − 5 2 The second critical number is: x − 3 = 0 x = 3 Thus, − 5 2 and 3 are the critical numbers for the function. Let choose a point − 3 less than − 5 2 and 0 greater than − 5 2 . Calculate the value of f ′ ( − 3 ) : f ′ ( − 3 ) = ( − 4 ( − 3 ) − 10 ) ( − 3 − 3 ) = ( 12 − 10 ) ( − 6 ) = 2 ( − 6 ) = − 12 Calculate the value of f ′ ( 0 ) : f ′ ( 0 ) = ( − 4 ( 0 ) − 10 ) ( 0 − 3 ) = ( − 10 ) ( − 3 ) = 30 Since, f ′ ( − 3 ) < 0 and f ′ ( 0 ) > 0 , − 5 2 is a point of local minima. Let choose a point 0 less than 3 and 4 greater than 3 . Calculate the value of f ′ ( 4 ) : f ′ ( 4 ) = ( − 4 ( 4 ) − 10 ) ( 4 − 3 ) = ( − 16 − 10 ) ( 1 ) = − 26 Since, f ′ ( 0 ) > 0 and f ′ ( 4 ) < 0 , 3 is a point of local maxima
