Question:

Consider the following function:
f (x) = 48x – 60x2 + x3.
(a) Use the first and second derivatives to find the local maxima and local minima of f (x).
(b) Use the first and second derivatives to show that f (x) has neither a global maximum nor a global minimum because it is unbounded in both directions.
