It's asking you to look for a max/min, it's best if you graph it out
OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):
ok, but how would you graph that out
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Computer :P

OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):
let me redo it one sec sorry
OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):
\[f(x)= -0.02x ^{4} + .36x ^{2} - 1.62\]

stupid expoent doesnt work
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The graph I gave you was wrong, because I put -0.002 not -.02, and for exponents use this "^"
OpenStudy (howard-wolowitz):
never i see how to use it

|dw:1424352878146:dw| so this is how it is
