In order to find the extremum of a function, you need to find its derivative.


g(x)=2x2+3;g(x)=\frac{2}{x^2}+3;

dg(x)dx=2x(21)(2)+0;\frac{dg(x)}{dx}=2*x^{(-2-1)}*(-2)+0;dg(x)dx=4x30\frac{dg(x)}{dx}=\frac{-4}{x^3} \neq 0

As can be seen, the derivative of the function is not zero for any x

Answer: The function has no extrema.
