Locate and classify all extrema in the graph. (By classifying the extrema, we mean listing whether each extremum is a relative or absolute maximum or minimum.) Also,locate any stationary points or singular points that are not relative extrema. (Order your answers from smallest to largest x.)fhas –Select— at (x, y) = fhas –Select— at (x, y) = fhas —Select— at (x, y) =
