Transcribed Image Text:Given the cubic function f(x) = x^3-6x^2 + 11x- 6, do the following: Plot the graph of the
function. Find the critical points and determine whether each is a local minimum, local
maximum, or a saddle point. Find the inflection point(s) (if any).Identify the intervals where
the function is increasing and decreasing. Determine the end behavior of the graph.
