Answer

Minimum value is $ f(0)=0$ and maximum value is $ f(3)=9$

Work Step by Step

$ f'(t)= 6-2t $ $ f $ is differentiable everywhere. So, the only critical point we get is $ c $ such that $ f'(c)=0$ i.e., $6-2c=0\implies 6=2c\implies c=3$ To find maximum and minimum values, we compare values at the critical point and end points. $ f(3)=6(3)-(3)^{2}=9$ $ f(0)= 6(0)-(0)^{2}=0$ $ f(5)=6(5)-(5)^{2}=5$ Minimum value is $ f(0)=0$ and maximum value is $ f(3)=9$
