The graph of the function has one relative maximum and one relative minimum point. Plot these two points and check the concavity there. Using only this information, sketch the graph. f(x) = 1/3x^3 + 2x^2 + 3x The relative minimum point on the graph is . (Type an ordered pair, using integers or fractions.)

Find the local maximum and minimum values of f using both the First and Second Derivative Tests. f(x) = 3 + 3x^2 - 2x^3 local maximum value local minimum value
Adi S.
Each of the graphs of the functions has one relative maximum and one relative minimum point. Find these points using the first-derivative test. Use a variation chart as in Example 1. $$f(x)=2 x^{3}+3 x^{2}-3$$
