$\"\"$

(a)

The function is $\"\"$ .

Find the critical numbers by applying derivative.

$\"\"$

Apply derivative on each side with respect to $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$

Equate the derivative to $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$

For $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$

Equate the derivative to $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$

Therefore the critical number is $\"\"$ .

The function has a discontinuity at $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$

(b)

Consider the test intervals to find the interval of increasing and decreasing.

Test intervals are $\"\"$ , $\"\"$ and $\"\"$ .

\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \

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

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

$\"\"$

(c)

Use first derivative test to identify all relative extrema.

At the critical point $\"\"$ , the function is discontinuous.

So no relative extremas are exist at $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$ changes from negative to positive at $\"\"$ . [From (b)]

Therefore according to first derivative test , the function has minimum at $\"\"$ .

The function $\"\"$ has a relative minimum at $\"\"$ .

Find $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$

So the function $\"\"$ has relative minimum at $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$

(d)

Graph the function is $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$

(a)

Critical number is $\"\"$ .

(b)

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

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

(c)

The function $\"\"$ has relative minimum at $\"\"$ .

(d)

Graph of the function is $\"\"$ .
