Problem

Solution

Part a

For this case the x intercepts are:

(-5,0) , (-1,0) and (5,0)

The only y intercept is given by: (0,-3)

Part b

For this case we can see that f(x) =-f(x) for one of the side sof the graph so then we can conclude that the graph is symmetric repect to the x axis

Part c

For this case f(-x) =-f(x) so then we can conclude that the function is odd

Part d

Intervals increasing:

[tex](-\infty,-3)U(2,\infty)[/tex]

Intervals decreasing:

[tex](-3,2)[/tex]

Part e

For this case the local maximum occurs at x=-3

(-3,5)

Part f

The local minimum for this case would be at x=2:

(2,-6)
