(a)

The function is $\"\"$ , $\"\"$ .

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

$\"\"$

Find the critical points.

Equate $\"\"$ to zero:

$\"\"$

$\"\"$ and $\"\"$

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

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

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

$\"\"$	$\"\"$	\ $\"\"$ \	Decreasing
$\"\"$	$\"\"$	\ $\"\"$ \	Increasing
$\"\"$	$\"\"$	\ $\"\"$ \	Decreasing

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

The function is decreasing on the intervals $\"\"$ and $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$

(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 $\"\"$ .

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

$\"\"$

Local maximum is $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$

(c)

$\"\"$ .

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

$\"\"$

Find the inflection points.

Equate $\"\"$ to zero.

$\"\"$

$\"\"$ and $\"\"$

The values of $\"\"$ for $\"\"$ on $\"\"$ is $\"\"$ and $\"\"$ .

The values of $\"\"$ for $\"\"$ on $\"\"$ is $\"\"$ .

$\"\"$ not consider as the inflection point since it is critical point.

The inflection point is $\"\"$ and $\"\"$ .

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