(a)
\The function is
.
Substitute
in
.
Since
, the function
is an even function.
(b)
\A function
has a local maximum at c if there is an open interval I containing c so that for all x in I ,
, then
is called as a local maximum value of
.
A function

The function
has a local maximum value of
at
, i.e,
.
If
, then
is called as a local maximum value of

.
Since
, the function
has a second local maximum value of
at
.
(c)
\The area under the graph of
bounded by the x - axis in the interval
is 47.4 square units.
Since the function
is an even function, the area under the graph of
bounded by the x - axis in the interval
is also 47.4 square units.
