I'm having some major issues trying to solve the following:
find all local extrema and inflection points of:
f(x) = x + cos(2x) 0<= X <= Pi
I got f'(x) = 1 - 2 sin(2x)
f"(x) = -4 cos(2x)
I can't figure out how to solve the above for 0. through plug and play I figured out one of the inflection points to be Pi/4. I can't figure out how to get the max/min points. can't figure out how to get sin(2x) = 1/2
any hints, tips, solutions would be much appreciated
