Math Problem Analysis

Mathematical Concepts

Derivatives
Critical Points
Extrema
Increasing/Decreasing Intervals
Cubic Functions

Formulas

Derivative of a cubic function y' = 3x^2 - 3
Derivative of a cubic function y' = 6x^2 - 10x - 24

Theorems

Critical points occur when y' = 0
Intervals of increase/decrease depend on the sign of y'
Maximum and minimum values occur at critical points
