Use the graph of the function f(x) to locate the local extrema and identify the intervals where the function is concave up and concave down.

A. Local minimum at x = 3 ; local maximum at x = -3 ; concave up on (0, ?); concave down on (-?, 0)
B. Local minimum at x = 3 ; local maximum at x = -3 ; concave down on (-?, -3) and (3, ?); concave up on (-3, 3)
C. Local minimum at x = 3 ; local maximum at x = -3 ; concave down on (0, ?); concave up on (-?, 0)
D. Local minimum at x = 3 ; local maximum at x = -3 ; concave up on (-?, -3) and (3, ?); concave down on (-3, 3)
