b. 
A mixed fraction of the form 




Hence, the answer.
Answer:
0 is an inflection point
1/4 is a local maximum.
Step-by-step explanation:
To begin with you find the first derivative of the function and get that

to find the critical points you equal the first derivative to 0 and get that

To find if they are maximums or local minimums you use the second derivative.

since
is neither an inflection point, and since
then 1/4 is a maximum.
Answer:5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the "leading" runner in a race would be found in the first position, because he or she is in the lead, it means they are first, then I suppose I would find the "leading coefficient" in the first place in a polynomial as well.
The minimum is <em>X=1</em> and <em>Y=3</em>, so the minimum is <em>x=3</em>. Use a graphing calculator then Google Search, "<em>How to find the minimum of a graph using a graphing calculator.</em>". The process of this is way to long to explain here, and is best explained visually.
