Analyze the graph of the given function f as follows:(a) Determine the end behavior: find the power function that the graph of f resembles for large values of |x|.(b)  Find the x- and y-intercepts of the graph.(c)  Determine whether the graph crosses or touches the x-axis at each x-intercept.(d)  Graph f using a graphing utility.(e)  Use the graph to determine the local maxima and local minima, if any exist. Round turning points to two decimal places.(f) Use the information obtained in (a) - (e) to draw a complete graph of f by hand. Label all intercepts and turning points.(g)  Find the domain of f. Use the graph to find the range of f.(h)  Use the graph to determine where f is increasing and where f is decreasing.f(x) = 16x - x3

What will be an ideal response?


(a) For large values of |x|, the graph of f(x) will resemble the graph of y = -x3.
(b) y-intercept: (0, 0), x-intercepts: (-4, 0), (0, 0), and (4, 0)
(c) The graph of f crosses the x-axis at each of the intercepts (-4, 0), (0 ,0), and (4, 0).
(e) Local maximum at (2.31, 24.63); Local minimum at (-2.31, -24.63)
(f) 

(g) Domain of f: all real numbers; range of f: all real numbers
(h) f is increasing on (-2.31, 2.31); f is decreasing on (-?, -2.31) and
