The critical value of the function is the value of x that
cancels the first derivative of the function.
f'(x)
= (-3x^2 + 6x)'
f'(x) = -3*2x^1
+ 6
f'(x) = -6x + 6
Now,
we'll determine the roots of the equation f'(x) = 0.
-6x +
6 = 0
We'll subtract 6 both
sides:
-6x = -6
We'll divide
by -6:
x = 1
The
critical value for f(x) is x = 1.
Now,
we'll determine the local extreme of the given function, substituting x by the critical
value.
f(1) = -3*1^2 +
6*1
f(1) = -3 +
6
f(1) =
3
The maximum point of the
function is the vertex of the parabola and it has the coordinates: (1 ;
3).
