We consider the following mixed type cubic and quartic functional equation [ ( + ) + ( − )] = 3 [ ( + ) + ( − )] − 2 3 ( + 1) ( ) − 2 ( 2 − 1) ( ) + 2( + 1) ( ), where is a fixed integer. We establish the general solution of the functional equation when the integer ̸ = 0, ±1, and then, by using the fixed point alternative, we investigate the generalized Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability for this functional equation when the integer ≥ 2.
