Example:
Find the critical points of and identify the intervals on which f is increasing and decreasing. Find the functions local and absolute extreme values.Solution:
First derivative test for local extrema:
x=0 : f(x) does not change sign
x=1 :f(x) changes from ve to +ve
Local min: f(1)=-3Absolute min: f(1)=-3No local extremumlocal minimum
