Correct answer: D

  1. For the function fλ(x)=4λx3−36λx2+36x+48f_\lambda(x)=4\lambda x^3-36\lambda x^2+36x+48fλ​(x)=4λx3−36λx2+36x+48 to be increasing for all x∈Rx\in\mathbb Rx∈R, we need fλ′(x)≥0for all x∈R.f_\lambda'(x)\ge 0 \quad \text{for all } x\in\mathbb R.fλ′​(x)≥0for all x∈R.

  2. Differentiate: fλ′(x)=12λx2−72λx+36.f_\lambda'(x)=12\lambda x^2-72\lambda x+36.fλ′​(x)=12λx2−72λx+36. Factor out 121212: fλ′(x)=12(λx2−6λx+3).f_\lambda'(x)=12\big(\lambda x^2-6\lambda x+3\big).fλ′​(x)=12(λx2−6λx+3).

  3. So we require λx2−6λx+3≥0∀x∈R.\lambda x^2-6\lambda x+3\ge 0 \quad \forall x\in\mathbb R.λx2−6λx+3≥0∀x∈R.

  4. This is a quadratic in xxx. For it to be non-negative for all real xxx, two conditions are needed:

    • coefficient of x2x^2x2 must be positive or zero,
    • discriminant must be ≤0\le 0≤0.

    Here coefficient of x2x^2x2 is λ\lambdaλ, so we need λ≥0.\lambda\ge 0.λ≥0.

    Discriminant: Δ=(−6λ)2−4(λ)(3)=36λ2−12λ=12λ(3λ−1).\Delta = (-6\lambda)^2-4(\lambda)(3)=36\lambda^2-12\lambda=12\lambda(3\lambda-1).Δ=(−6λ)2−4(λ)(3)=36λ2−12λ=12λ(3λ−1). For non-negativity for all xxx, Δ≤0.\Delta\le 0.Δ≤0. Since λ≥0\lambda\ge 0λ≥0, this gives

    \implies \lambda(3\lambda-1)\le 0 \implies 0\le \lambda\le \frac13.$$
  5. Therefore, the largest such value is λ∗=13.\lambda^*=\frac13.λ∗=31​.

  6. Now compute fλ∗(x)f_{\lambda^*}(x)fλ∗​(x):

    =\frac{4}{3}x^3-12x^2+36x+48.$$
  7. Evaluate at x=1x=1x=1: f_{1/3}(1)=\frac43-12+36+48= rac43+72= rac{220}{3}.

  8. Evaluate at x=−1x=-1x=−1: f1/3(−1)=−43−12−36+48=−43+0=−43.f_{1/3}(-1)=-\frac43-12-36+48=-\frac43+0=-\frac43.f1/3​(−1)=−34​−12−36+48=−34​+0=−34​.

  9. Add them: f_{1/3}(1)+f_{1/3}(-1)=\frac{220}{3}-\frac{4}{3}= rac{216}{3}=72.

  10. Hence the correct option is 72.\boxed{72}.72​.
