Find the stationary point of the curve (y = 3x^{2} – 2x^{3}).

Find the stationary point of the curve (y = 3x^{2} – 2x^{3}).

  • A.
    (1, 0)
  • B.
    (-1, 0)
  • C.
    (1, 1)
  • D.
    (-1, -1)
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation

(y = 3x^{2} – 2x^{3})

(frac{mathrm d y}{mathrm d x} = 6x – 6x^{2} = 0 implies 6x(1 – x) = 0)

(x = 0, 1), when x = 1, y = 0.

when x = 1, y = 0.

The stationary point is (1, 0)
