Solution
(a)
-
128
Given
:
f
x
=
2
x
3
-
21
x
2
+
36
x
-
20
⇒
f
'
x
=
6
x
2
-
42
x
+
36
For
a
local
maxima
or
a
local
minima
,
we
must
have
f
'
x
=
0
⇒
6
x
2
-
42
x
+
36
=
0
⇒
x
2
-
7
x
+
6
=
0
⇒
x
-
1
x
-
6
=
0
⇒
x
=
1
,
6
Now
,
f
'
'
x
=
12
x
-
42
⇒
f
'
'
1
=
12
-
42
=
-
30
<
0
So
,
x
=
1
is
a
local
maxima
.
Also
,
f
'
'
6
=
72
-
42
=
30
>
0
So
,
x
=
6
is
a
local
miniima
.
The
local
minimum
value
is
given
by
f
6
=
=
