1) Find the intervals on which f is increasing and the intervals on which it is decreasing. f(x)= -x^3-6x

2) Find the intervals on which f is increasing and the intervals on which it is decreasing. f(x)= x^4/4+x^3+x^2

3) Locate the critical points of the following function. Then use the Second Derivative Test to determine whether they correspond to local maxima, local minima, or neither. f(x)= -x^3-3x^2

Expert Solution

In this question I have used first derivative to find the intervals of increasing and decreasing. In last question I have used second derivative test to determine whether they are local minima or local maxima. Hope you understand.

Thank you
