By completing the following activity, examine the function f(x) = x3 – 9x2 + 24x for maxima and minima

Solution: f(x) = x3 – 9x2 + 24x

∴ f'(x) = `square`

∴ f''(x) = `square`

For extreme values, f'(x) = 0, we get

x = `square` or `square`

∴ f''`(square)` = – 6 < 0

∴ f(x) is maximum at x = 2.

∴ Maximum value = `square`

∴ f''`(square)` = 6 > 0

∴ f(x) is maximum at x = 4.

∴ Minimum value = `square`
