Step-by-step explanation:
Take the first derivative
Set the derivative equal to 0.
or
For any number less than -1, the derivative function will have a Positve number thus a Positve slope for f(x).
For any number, between -1 and 1, the derivative slope will have a negative , thus a negative slope.
Since we are going to Positve to negative slope, we have a local max at x=-1
Plug in -1 for x into the original function
So the local max is 2 and occurs at x=-1,
For any number greater than 1, we have a Positve number for the derivative function we have a Positve slope.
Since we are going to decreasing to increasing, we have minimum at x=1,
Plug in 1 for x into original function
So the local min occurs at -2, at x=1
Option D: are the ordered pairs represents a function.
Explanation:
Given that the options of the set of ordered pairs.
We need to determine the ordered pairs that represents a function.
Option A:
A relation is said to be a function if each element of x is related to exactly one element in y.
From this set of ordered pairs, it is obvious that the element -12 of x is related to two different element in y.
Thus, the ordered pairs is not a function.
Hence, Option A is not the correct answer.
Option B:
From this set of ordered pairs, it is obvious that the elements -8 and 8 of x are related to two different element in y.
Thus, the ordered pairs is not a function.
Hence, Option B is not the correct answer.
Option C:
From this set of ordered pairs, it is obvious that the element 13 of x is related to three different element in y.
Thus, the ordered pairs is not a function.
Hence, Option C is not the correct answer.
Option D:
A relation is said to be a function if each element of x is related to exactly one element in y.
From this set of ordered pairs, it is obvious that the each element of x is related exactly one element in y.
Thus, the ordered pairs is a function.
Hence, Option D is the correct answer.
