the function is x^4 – 2x^3
the question asks which statements are true. each statement states how many global extrema and inflection points it has
the inflection thing i know, but how do you figure out extrema when not permitted a graphing calculator? i tried using first & second derivative test but couldn’t do it. i mean i know a change in signs in 1st deriv implies maxima or minima, but how can you be certain for an ENTIRE function?
and the answer is one extrema
