Correct answer: 144

  1. Let the polynomial be

Since f(x)f(x)f(x) is a monic polynomial of degree 666, write f(x)=x6+ax5+bx4+cx3+dx2+ex+g.f(x)=x^6+ax^5+bx^4+cx^3+dx^2+ex+g.f(x)=x6+ax5+bx4+cx3+dx2+ex+g.

  1. Use the limit condition

Given lim⁡x→0f(x)x3=1.\lim_{x\to 0}\frac{f(x)}{x^3}=1.limx→0​x3f(x)​=1. For this limit to exist and be finite, all terms of degree less than 333 must vanish: g=0,e=0,d=0.g=0,\quad e=0,\quad d=0.g=0,e=0,d=0. Also the coefficient of x3x^3x3 must be 111, so c=1.c=1.c=1. Hence, f(x)=x6+ax5+bx4+x3.f(x)=x^6+ax^5+bx^4+x^3.f(x)=x6+ax5+bx4+x3.

  1. Use the extrema at x=−1x=-1x=−1 and x=1x=1x=1

If x=±1x=\pm1x=±1 are extrema, then f′(1)=0,f′(−1)=0.f'(1)=0,\qquad f'(-1)=0.f′(1)=0,f′(−1)=0. Now, f′(x)=6x5+5ax4+4bx3+3x2.f'(x)=6x^5+5ax^4+4bx^3+3x^2.f′(x)=6x5+5ax4+4bx3+3x2.

So at x=1x=1x=1, 6+5a+4b+3=06+5a+4b+3=06+5a+4b+3=0 5a+4b+9=0...(1)5a+4b+9=0 \quad ...(1)5a+4b+9=0...(1)

At x=−1x=-1x=−1, −6+5a−4b+3=0-6+5a-4b+3=0−6+5a−4b+3=0 5a−4b−3=0...(2)5a-4b-3=0 \quad ...(2)5a−4b−3=0...(2)

  1. Solve for a,ba,ba,b

Adding (1) and (2): 10a+6=010a+6=010a+6=0 a=−35.a=-\frac{3}{5}.a=−53​.

Substitute into (2): 5(−35)−4b−3=05\left(-\frac35\right)-4b-3=05(−53​)−4b−3=0 −3−4b−3=0-3-4b-3=0−3−4b−3=0 −4b=6-4b=6−4b=6 b=−32.b=-\frac32.b=−23​.

Thus, f(x)=x6−35x5−32x4+x3.f(x)=x^6-\frac35x^5-\frac32x^4+x^3.f(x)=x6−53​x5−23​x4+x3.

  1. Find f(2)f(2)f(2)

f(2)=26−35(25)−32(24)+23f(2)=2^6-\frac35(2^5)-\frac32(2^4)+2^3f(2)=26−53​(25)−23​(24)+23 =64−35⋅32−32⋅16+8=64-\frac35\cdot 32-\frac32\cdot 16+8=64−53​⋅32−23​⋅16+8 =64−965−24+8=64-\frac{96}{5}-24+8=64−596​−24+8 =48−965=48-\frac{96}{5}=48−596​ =240−965=\frac{240-96}{5}=5240−96​ =1445.=\frac{144}{5}.=5144​.

Therefore, 5f(2)=144.5f(2)=144.5f(2)=144.
