Question 30 NECO • 2017 • FURTHER_MATHEMATICS • objective

For the function \(f(x)=x^{3}-6x^{2}+9x+2\):\n(a) Find all stationary points and classify each as a local maximum, local minimum, or point of inflection.\n(b) Write the equation of the tangent line at the point where \(f\) attains its maximum.\n(c) Evaluate the definite integral \(\displaystyle\int_{x_{1}}^{x_{2}} f(x)\,dx\) where \(x_{1}\) and \(x_{2}\) are the abscissas of the two stationary points.

Answer Options

A. Maximum at (0,2), minimum at (3,2); tangent line y=2; \\(\\int_{0}^{3}f(x)dx=5\\)
