Find the intervals on which f is increasing and decreasing, find the local maximum and minimum values of f, find the intervals of cocavity and inflection f(x) 2x^3 + 3x^2 -36x

A graphing calculator can be helpful.

Increasing: x ∈ (-∞, -3) ∪ (2, ∞)
Decreasing: x ∈ (-3, 2)
Local maximum: (-3, 81)
Local minimum: (2, -44)
Concave downward: x ∈ (-∞, -0.5)
Concave upward: x ∈ (-0.5, ∞)
Point of inflection: (-0.5, 18.5)
