what did you get for the derivative?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I got 2x^(-1/3)-2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah but that negative exponent doesn't help your cause
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\frac{2}{\sqrt[3]{x}}-2\]

one critical point is clearly 0, because this is undefined when \(x=0\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I see. so theres no answer?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes, you still have to set it equal to zero and solve
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you have to find the critical point, which are where the derivative is either equal to zero or undefined
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so one critical point is \(x=0\)

for the other, set
\[\frac{2}{\sqrt[3]{x}}-2=0\] and solve for \(x\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x=\[\sqrt[3]{1}\]?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that what I got. @satellite73
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah , 1 is a critical point as well
OpenStudy (anonymous):
now you have to check
\[f(-1),f(0),f(1)\] biggest is the max, smallest is the min

How do i check ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
f(-1) , put -1 in to the equation that given?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3(-1)^(2/3)-2(-1)

@satellite73
im still stuck with this question could you give me help
