find all the maximums of the polynomial f(x)=x^2-8x+11

What is the global (absolute) maximum?

1 answer

you surely know that this is a parabola which opens up, so there is no local maximum.

So, find the f values at the ends of the interval, and pick the larger for the global max. No interval? No maximum.
