Consider a function f with domain {x|x 0} and the following derivatives: f'(x) = x2 4x - a and f" (x) = 2a with a a nonzero real number. x 2.1 What are the critical points of the function f? What are the value(s) of a for which the critical points are defined? Do not show calculations. 2.2 Use the second derivative test to identify the local extremes, if any, of f.
