Given information
If is the function considered in Example , use a computer algebra system to calculate and then graph it to confirm that all the maximum and minimum values are as given in the example.
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
We have the function
Differentiating the function
From the graphing calculator, the critical points are and , because at and
Since is not defined at so are critical points of .
Since on so is increasing on
Since on , so is decreasing on
