Consider the function
f ( x ) = 12 x 5 + 60 x 4 − 100 x 3 + 2 \displaystyle {f{{\left({x}\right)}}}={12}{x}^{{5}}+{60}{x}^{{4}}-{100}{x}^{{3}}+{2} f ( x ) = 12 x 5 + 60 x 4 − 100 x 3 + 2 .
For this function there are four important intervals:
( − ∞ , A ] \displaystyle {\left(-\infty,{A}\right]} ( − ∞ , A ] ,
[ A , B ] \displaystyle {\left[{A},{B}\right]} [ A , B ] ,
[ B , C ] \displaystyle {\left[{B},{C}\right]} [ B , C ] , and
[ C , ∞ ) \displaystyle {\left[{C},\infty\right)} [ C , ∞ ) where
A \displaystyle {A} A ,
B \displaystyle {B} B , and
C \displaystyle {C} C are the critical numbers.
Find
A \displaystyle {A} A Preview Question 6 Part 1 of 6
and
B \displaystyle {B} B Preview Question 6 Part 2 of 6
and
C \displaystyle {C} C Preview Question 6 Part 3 of 6
At each critical number
A \displaystyle {A} A ,
B \displaystyle {B} B , and
C \displaystyle {C} C does
f ( x ) \displaystyle {f{{\left({x}\right)}}} f ( x )
have a local min, a local max, or neither?
Type in your answer as LMIN, LMAX, or NEITHER.
