the derivitive is just the slope
minimum happens when the derivitive goes from negative to positive, imagine a slope of the function, the minimum is where the slope goes from neative to positive, and to get there, it has to pass through 0
max happens when the derivitive goes from positive to negative
increaseing is when the derivitive is positive
so, based on what you said, the slope of f(x) is 0 at x=-3, x=1 and x=2 since those are where the derivitive is 0 (derivitive is just the slope)
A and B are wrong because the derivitive isn't 0 at those points
C is correct because increasing means that the derivitive is positive, and so therefo since the only hoirontal place in between 1 and 2 is 1.5, it must remain positive throughout and not dip down, C is right
D is wrong then
answer is C

Z = -2/3a
divide by -2/3 on both sides
a = z divided by -2/3
a = -3/2z
Actually you can't solve this. There is no solutions.
