Question 1

Given the function f(x) = 2x^3 - 9x^2 + 12x, find the intervals of increase and decrease.

💡 Hint: Remember to check the signs of f' in each interval!

Question 2

Determine the critical points and analyze f(x) = x^4 - 4x^3.

💡 Hint: Critical points are where the derivative is zero. Look carefully at the function’s behavior around these points.
