Let f(x)=8x+2/x. Find the open intervals on which f is increasing (decreasing). Then determine the x-coordinates of all relative maxima (minima).

1. f is increasing on the intervals= (-INF,-1/2),(1/2,INF)
2. f is decreasing on the intervals= (1/2,-1/2) this one is the one I got wrong
3. The relative maxima of f occur at x =-1/2
4. The relative minima of f occur at x =1/2

Notes: In the first two, your answer should either be a single interval, such as (0,1), a comma separated list of intervals, such as (-inf, 2), (3,4), or the word "none".

In the last two, your answer should be a comma separated list of x values or the word "none".
