Let f(x)=(x−2)(x+1)2f(x)=(x-2)(x+1)^{2} for all real xx. Which of the following statements about the graph of an antiderivative of f′(x)f'(x) is true? (a) The graph has a local maximum at x=2x=2 and a local minimum at x=−1x=-1. (b) The graph has local minima at both x=−1x=-1 and x=2x=2. (c) The graph has a local minimum at x=2x=2 and no local extremum at x=−1x=-1. (d) The graph has a local maximum at x=−1x=-1 and no local extremum at x=2x=2.
