Transcribed Image Text:**Problem Statement:**
Let \( f(x) = x^3 - 15x^2 + 27x - 2 \). Find the open intervals on which \( f \) is increasing (decreasing). Then determine the \( x \)-coordinates of all relative maxima (minima).
1. \( f \) is increasing on the intervals: \((1, 9)\)
2. \( f \) is decreasing on the intervals:
3. The relative maxima of \( f \) occur at \( x = \) \(1\)
4. The relative minima of \( f \) occur at \( x = \) \(-\text{INF}\)
**Notes:** In the first two, your answer should either be a single interval, such as \((0,1)\), a comma-separated list of intervals, such as \((- \infty, 2), (3, 4)\), or the word "none".
In the last two, your answer should be a comma-separated list of \( x \) values or the word "none".
