2.Find the critical values among the given X values by: a. Correctly finding the first derivative of the given function. Write dy/dx here ________________ Show how you found the derivative on the worksheet (this is half the credit for this question). b. Using the derivative from (2a) solve it for all the X values that make the derivative equal zero. Show your work on the worksheet and also write “0” in the cell of the dy/dx row for the X value where dy/dx = 0.  There may be none, one, or two such.  (this is the other half credit).
