Problem
For the function in the interval , list all its local extrema in ascending order of their function values.Intuitive explanation
The key is to find where by recognizing that the derivative simplifies nicely. Once you compute , you'll see that critical points occur when (the boundaries and where ). Evaluate at each interior critical point and any boundary behavior to identify which are actual local extrema, then order them by their -values rather than their -coordinates.
