Letfx, be a polynomial of degree3, such thatf-1=10, f1=-6, fx, has a critical point atx=-1andf'x, has a critical point atx=1.Thenfx, has local minima atx=

Answer:
3.00
Solution:

f"x=λx-1

Integrating both the side with respect to x

⇒f'x=λx-122+c

As f'1=0⇒c=-2λ
f'x=λx-122-2λ

Integrating both the side with respect to x

fx=λx-136-2λx+u


f1=-6⟹-2λ+u=-6
f-1=10⟹2λ3+u=10
∴λ=6 and u=6
f'x=0⟹x-1 or x=3

f''3>0
∴x=3, is a point of local minima.
