(a)
\The function is .
Find the critical numbers by applying derivative.
\Apply derivative on each side with respect to .
Equate the derivative to .
Therefore the critical number is .
(b)
\Consider the test intervals to find the interval of increasing and decreasing.
\Test intervals are and
.
Test interval | \Test value | \Sign of ![]() | \

The function is increasing on the interval
.
The function is decreasing on the interval
.
(c)
\Use first Derivative Test to identify all relative extrema.
\ changes from positive to negative . [From (b) ]
Therefore according to First derivative test , the function has maximum at .
The function has a relative maximum at
.
Find .
So the function has relative maximum at
.
(d)
\Graph the function is .
Observe the graph :
\The function has critical number at .
The function is increasing on the interval
and decreasing on the interval
.
The function has relative maximum at
.
(a) The function has critical number at .
(b) The function is increasing on the interval
and decreasing on the interval
.
(c) The function has relative maximum at
.
(d) Graph of the function is \ \
