To find the points at which the function \( f(x) = (x-2)^4 (x+1)^3 \) has local maxima, local minima, and points of inflection, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Find the first derivative \( f'(x) \) Using the product rule, we differentiate \( f(x) \): \[ f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}[(x-2)^4] \cdot (x+1)^3 + (x-2)^4 \cdot \frac{d}{dx}[(x+1)^3] ...
