To get the extrema, derive the function.
You get y' = 2x^-1/3 - 2.
Set this equal to zero, and you get x=0 as the location of a critical point.
Since you are on a closed interval [-1, 1], those points can also have an extrema.
Your min is right, but the max isn't at (1,1). At x=-1, you get y=5 (y = 3(-1)^2/3 -2(-1); (-1)^2/3 = 1, not -1).
Thus, the maximum is at (-1, 5).
You set (x+15) equal to 40 and solve for x.
x+15=40
-15 -15
x=25
Hope this helps!
Because the polynomial has degree 2, we can assume that there are 2 solutions (roots), whether real or imaginary.
You can subtract 60 in order to put this in standard form
48x^2+44x-60 = 0
From there, just put a,b, and c into the quadratic formula and you're good to solve for your answers.
(-b+-sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a
(-44+-sqrt(44^2-4(48)(-60)))/2(48)
Then solve.
There is probably a better way, but this should give you the two roots/solutions.
