f(x) = -x2 + 6x - 4
∴ f'(x) = -2x + 6
Solve for f'(x) = 0:
0 = -2x + 6
x = 3
So the peak occurs at the point where x = 3. Now you can calculate the value of f(3)
f(3) = -32 + 6(3) - 4
∴ f(3) = -9 + 18 - 4
∴ f(3) = 5
So the maximum value of that function is 5, and it occurs when x = 3.
To prove that it's a maximum, take the second derivative:
f'(x) = -2x + 6
∴ f''(x) = -2
Because it's negative, we know that this is the peak of the curve.

How many coefficients are in -3x3 plus x2 plus 17 plus 6X4?
- 3X3 + X2 + 17 + 6X4 - 3 = coefficient of the variable term X3 6 = coefficient of the variable term X4 ----------------------------------------------------------- I do not know how you are being taught, but...... 1 = the implied coefficient of the variable term X2 S0 I would say three coefficients, but your teacher may say two. Consult your text on the implied coefficient 1.
