(a)

\

Thu function is \"\", \"\".

\

Differentiate \"\" on each side with respect to \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Find the critical points.

\

Thus, the critical points exist when \"\".

\

Equate \"\" to zero:

\

\"\"

\

\"\" and \"\"

\

\"\" and \"\"

\

\"\" and \"\".

\

The critical points are \"\" and \"\".

\

The test intervals are \"\" and \"\".

\

The function is increasing on the interval \"\".

\

The function is decreasing on the interval \"\".

\

\

(b)

\

Find the local maximum and local minimum.

\

The function \"\" has a local minimum at \"\", because \"\" changes its sign from negative to positive.

\

Substitute \"\" in \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Local minimum is \"\".

\

\

(c)

\"\".

\

Differentiate \"\" on each side with respect to \"\".

\

Find the inflection points.

\

Equate \"\" to zero.

\

\"\"

\"\" and \"\"

\

\"\" and \"\" and \"\".

\

\"\" is not considered as a infletion point since it is critical point.

\

The inflection points are at \"\" and \"\".
