(c)
\First derivative test to identify all relative extrema.
\\
From the first derivative test the function changing from positive to negative at
. [ from (b)]
has a relative maximum at
.
So the function has relative maximum at
.
From the first derivative test the function changing from negative to positive at
. [ from (b)]
has a relative minimum at
.
So the function has relative minimum at
.
