The global maximum and minimum values of f(x) = 3x^4 - 8x^3 +
12x^2 - 48x + 25, x
∈\in are M and m respectively then value
of 2M + m is equal to.

Show answer and solution
f(x) = 3x^4 - 8x^3 + 12x^2 - 48x + 25
∴\therefore f' (x) = 12x^3 - 24x^2 + 24x - 48 = 0
⇒\Rightarrow x^3 - 2x^2 + 2x - 4 = 0
⇒\Rightarrow (x^2 + 2) (x - 2) = 0
⇒\Rightarrow x = 2 ∈\in
∴\therefore f(0) = 25
f(2) = 48 - 64 + 48 - 96 + 25 = - 39

f(3) = 243 - 216 + 108 - 144 + 25 = 16
