Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that the graph of the polynomial.

(a) To find the function f is decreasing over which intervals:

From the graph, in the intervals, (-7,-3), (1,4), (7,), the given function's graph rises downwards.

Thus, the function f is decreasing in (-7,-3), (1,4), (7,).

(b)To find the function f has local maxima at which x-values:

From the graph, the function f attains its maximum at (-7,1), (1,0), (7,4).

Thus, the local maxima of the function f at x = -7, 1, 7.
