Your question don't have enough details. What are you trying to solve from this equation? Tagging it with Maxima and Minima is not enough information.

Yung process sana po sir. Thanks po

Yung process po sana kung paano solve.

Yung ans nya po is (0,0) , minimum.

$a^2 y = x^4$
 

Differentiate
$a^2 y' = 4x^3$
 

Equate y' = 0 to determine the critical points (maxima or minima)
$a^2 (0) = 4x^3$

$x = 0$
 

For x = 0
$a^2 y = 0^4$

$y = 0$
 

Hence,
critical point = (0, 0)
 

Check the neighboring points to determine whether (0, 0) is minimum or maximum. Set x = ±1:
$a^2 y = (\pm 1)^4$

$y = +\dfrac{1}{a^2}$   ←   above (0, 0)
 

Hence, the point (0, 0) is minimum.

Salamat po sir

How about 9a²y=x(4a+x)³

Yung ans nya po is (a,3a) maximum

Thanks in advance sir

Find the maxima and minima point of the curve y=3x⁴-8x³+6x²
