extreme f(x)= 1/(x^2-4)

Solution

extreme points

f (x) = \frac{1}{x ^{2} - 4}

Solution

Maximum (0, - \frac{1}{4})

Solution steps

f^{'} (x) = - \frac{2 x}{( x ^{2} - 4 ) ^{2}}

Find intervals:

Increasing

: - \infty < x < - 2,

Increasing

: - 2 < x < 0,

Decreasing

: 0 < x < 2,

Decreasing

: 2 < x < \infty

Plug

x = 0

into

\frac{1}{x ^{2} - 4} : - \frac{1}{4}

Maximum (0, - \frac{1}{4})
