A find the critical points if any of the following function

A find the critical points, if any, of the following function on the given interval.
B determine the absolute extreme values of f on the given interval.
C use a graphing utility to confirm your conclusions.

f(x)=4x^3e^-x,[-1,4]

Solution

y\' = 12x2 e-x - 4x3 e-x = 0

12x*x - 4x*x*x = 0

x = 0 x = 3

at x=0 : 0

x = 3 : 108e-3   = 5.41

check at end points : x =-1 :   -4e

x = 4 :   256e-4 = 4.725

absolute maxima :   x=3   : y= 108e-3

absolue minima : x = -1   y = -4e
