Given,

f(x) = 27x3 – 54x2 + 36x – 11

$\begin{array}{l} f\left( {\frac{3}{2}} \right)\; = \;27\; \times \;{\left( {\frac{3}{2}} \right)^3}\;-\;54\; \times \;{\left( {\frac{3}{2}} \right)^2}\; + \;36\; \times \;\left( {\frac{3}{2}} \right)\;-\;11\; = \frac{{729}}{8}\;-\frac{{243}}{2}\; + \;54\;-\;11\; = \frac{{101}}{8}\; = \;12\frac{5}{8}\\ \therefore \;f\left( {\frac{3}{2}} \right)\; = \;12\frac{5}{8} \end{array}$
