Differentiation: Stationary Points

Find each stationary point by differentiating, setting f'(x) = 0 and solving. State whether each is a local maximum or minimum.

  1. 1.
    Find the stationary point of f(x) = 2x^2 - 16x + 34 and state whether it is a local maximum or minimum.
  2. 2.
    Find the stationary point of f(x) = x2x^{2} + 6x + 14 and state whether it is a local maximum or minimum.
  3. 3.
    Find the stationary point of f(x) = 3x^2 + 12x + 9 and state whether it is a local maximum or minimum.
  4. 4.
    Find the stationary point of f(x) = x2x^{2} + 6x + 8 and state whether it is a local maximum or minimum.
  5. 5.
    Find the stationary point of f(x) = 2x^2 and state whether it is a local maximum or minimum.
  6. 6.
    Find the stationary points of f(x) = x3x^{3} - 6x^2 + 9x + 4 by solving f'(x) = 0.
  7. 7.
    Find the stationary points of f(x) = x3x^{3} - 9x^2 + 24x + 3 by solving f'(x) = 0.
  8. 8.
