Question
### First Derivative Test on the Function

Perform a first derivative test on the function \( f(x) = x^{\frac{2}{3}}(x - 2) \), over the interval \([-2, 2]\).

#### Steps:
a. **Locate the critical points of the given function.**

b. **Use the First Derivative Test to locate the local maximum and minimum values.**

c. **Identify the absolute maximum and minimum values of the function on the given interval (when they exist).**

### Answers:

#### a. Locate the Critical Points
- The chosen point shows there is a local minimum at \( x = \frac{4}{5} \).

#### c. Absolute Maximum Value
- **Option A (Correct):** The absolute maximum value is \( 0 \).
  
#### Absolute Minimum Value
- **Option A (Correct):** The absolute minimum value is \( -6.35 \).

Note: For each calculation, ensure to fill in the answer boxes with integers or decimals rounded to two decimal places as needed.
