Let f(x)=x3−6x2+9x+1f(x)=x^{3}-6x^{2}+9x+1, where x∈Rx\in\mathbb R. (i) Find all critical points of ff. (ii) Determine the intervals on which ff is strictly increasing and those on which it is strictly decreasing. (iii) Using the above results, sketch a rough graph of y=f(x)y=f(x), showing the turning points and the yy-intercept to a convenient scale.
