Extreme Points of :
If ' to the left of and ' to the right of then is a local .
If ' to the left of and ' to the right of then is a local .
find '
..........
Apply the Quotient Rule: '=('-('))/
'
'
'
'
'
will be only if numerator equal to zero, so
=>or
then
-> point is (,)
-> point is (,)
so we have:
Maximum: at (,)
Minimum: at (,)
