familiar with derivatives ?
yeah
Good. Start by finding first and second derivatives of the given function
-4x^3+4x 2nd -12^2+4
\(f(x) = -x^4 + 2x^2\) \(f'(x)=-4x^3+4x\) \(f''(x)=-12^2+4\)

critical points occur when \(f'(x)=0\) : \[-4x^3+4x=0\] solve \(x\)
x= 0,1,-1
Yes, evaluate the second derivative at each of those critical values
ok i got 0
Plz Check second derivative it Should be -12x^2 + 4

Now just evaluate above second derivative at each point x= 0,1,-1 f''(x) = -12(x)^2 + 4
ok I got 0 again..
