The correct answer is: -27

fx=x3-3x2-3f"(2)2x+f"1   i

f'x=3x2-6x-32f"(2)   ii

f"x=6x-6   iii

Then,

f"(2)=12-6=6

f"(1)=0

Now,

f'x=3x2-6x-32f"(2)

f'x=3x2-6x-32×6

f'(x)=3x2-6x-9

For maxima/minima, we have

f'x=0

3x2-6x-9=0

x2-2x-3=0

x2-3x+x-3=0

x=-1 and 3

Now,

f"(x)=6x-6

f"(-1)=-12<0 (maxima)

f"(3)=12>0 (minima)

Again

fx=x3-3x2-3f"(2)2x+f"1

fx=x3-3x2-32×6x+0

f(x)=x3-3x2-9x

f(3)=27-27-9×3=-27
