Answer:

x = -6 and x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In math, the critical points of a function are the points where the derivative equals zero.

So, first we will find the derivative of the function. The derivative is:

f'(x)=3x^2 +6x-72

Now, we are going to make the derivative equal zero and find the answers of the equation.

3x^2 +6x-72=0\\3(x^2 +2x-24)=0\\3(x+6)(x-4)=0\\

So we have that the critical points are the answers to this equation:

x+6= 0 \\x= - 6

and

x-4=0\\x=4

Thus, the critical points are x=-6 and x=4
