Detailed Solution

Since f (x), which is of degree 3, has relative minimum/maximum at x = - 1 and x=13 Therefore x=1

x=13 are roots of f(x)=0 Thus, x+1 and 3x1 are factors of f(x) Consequently, we have

f(x)=λ(x+1)(3x1)=λ3x2+2x1. f(x)=λx3+x2x+c.

Now,

f(2)=0

 c=2λ

We have

11f(x)dx=14311λx3+x2x+cdx=143λ11x2+11cdx=1432λ3+2c=143λ+3c=7(ii)

Solving (i) and (ii), we get λ=1,c=2

Hence, f(x)=x3+x2x+2
