Here f (x) = x 3 – 27 x + 3 ∴ f ' (x) = 3 x 2 – 27 and f ' ' (x) = 6 x Now f ' (x) = 0 ⇒ 3 x 2 – 27 = 0 ⇒ x 2 – 9 = 0 ⇒ x 2 = 9 x = – 3, 3 At x = 3, f ' ' (x) = 18 > 0 ∴ f has a local minima at x = 3 and local minimum value = (3) 3 – 27 (3) + 3 = 27 – 81 + 3 = – 51 At x = – 3, f ' ' (x) = – 18 < 0 ∴ f has a local maxima at x = – 3 and local maximum value = (– 3) 3 –21 ( 3) + 3 = 27 + 81 + 3 = 57

255. Find all the points of local maxima and local minima of the function f given by f (x) = x³ – 27 x + 3. Also, find local maximum and local minimum value of f.

Here f (x) = x³ – 27 x + 3
∴ f ' (x) = 3 x² – 27
and f ' ' (x) = 6 x
Now f ' (x) = 0 ⇒ 3 x²– 27 = 0 ⇒ x² – 9 = 0
⇒ x² = 9 x = – 3, 3
At x = 3, f ' ' (x) = 18 > 0
∴ f has a local minima at x = 3
and local minimum value = (3)³– 27 (3) + 3 = 27 – 81 + 3 = – 51
At x = – 3, f ' ' (x) = – 18 < 0
∴ f has a local maxima at x = – 3
and local maximum value = (– 3)³ –21 ( 3) + 3 = 27 + 81 + 3 = 57
