Given f(x) = -x³-7x² - 8x + 16 = (x+4) (4-3x-x2²). Find the (a) intervals on which f is decreasing and increasing as well as the critical values of f(x), if any; (4) (b) coordinates of local maximum and minimum values (if any); (2) (c) intervals on which f is concave up and concave down as well as the points of inflection, if any; (4) Sketch the graph of f(x) and show all details on the graph.
