Please answer the following questions. Your answers will be evaluated on their correctness, completeness, and use of mathematical concepts we have covered. Please show all work and write out your work neatly. Answers without supporting work will receive no credit. The point values of the problems are listed in parentheses.
f (x) = x^3 −
x.
(a) Find the horizontal and vertical asymptotes of the function, if any.
(b) Find the critical numbers of the function (if any) and the intervals where the function is increasing and decreasing.
(c) Find the local extrema of the function, if any. Classify each extremum as a local minimum or local maximum.
(d) Find the points of inflection of the function (if any) and the intervals where the graph of the function is concave up and concave down.
(a) lim x→ 1
