Final Answer: Inflection points occur at \(\boxed{\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}}\), Local maxima occur at \(\boxed{-\frac{\pi}{4}}\), Local minima occur at \(\boxed{\frac{5\pi}{4}}\), \( f(x) \) is concave up on \(\boxed{(\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2})}\), \( f(x) \) is concave down on \(\boxed{(-\pi, \frac{\pi}{2}) \cup (\frac{3\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2})}\)
Step 1 :To find the inflection points and local extrema of the function \( f(x)=12 \cos x-6 \sqrt{2} x \), we need to find the first and second derivatives of the function.
Step 2 :The first derivative is \( f'(x) = -12 \sin x - 6 \sqrt{2} \).
Step 3 :The critical points are found by setting the first derivative equal to zero: \( -12 \sin x - 6 \sqrt{2} = 0 \).
Step 4 :Solving for \( x \), we get the critical points at \( x = -\frac{\pi}{4} \) and \( x = \frac{5\pi}{4} \).
Step 5 :The second derivative is \( f''(x) = -12 \cos x \).
Step 6 :Inflection points occur where the second derivative changes sign. Setting \( f''(x) = 0 \), we find inflection points at \( x = \frac{\pi}{2} \) and \( x = \frac{3\pi}{2} \).
Step 7 :Using the first and second derivatives, we can determine that local maxima occur at \( x = -\frac{\pi}{4} \) and local minima occur at \( x = \frac{5\pi}{4} \).
Step 8 :The function is concave up on the interval \( (\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}) \) and concave down on the intervals \( (-\pi, \frac{\pi}{2}) \) and \( (\frac{3\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}) \).
Step 9 :Final Answer: Inflection points occur at \(\boxed{\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}}\), Local maxima occur at \(\boxed{-\frac{\pi}{4}}\), Local minima occur at \(\boxed{\frac{5\pi}{4}}\), \( f(x) \) is concave up on \(\boxed{(\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2})}\), \( f(x) \) is concave down on \(\boxed{(-\pi, \frac{\pi}{2}) \cup (\frac{3\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2})}\)
