    maximum and minimum graphs
    use maximum and minimum theory to graph:

    Y=x^3-9x^2=24x

    You seem to have a typo in the formula. Did you mean to write:

    y = x^3 -9x^2 + 24x ?

    You can find candidates for local max and min values for x by taking the first derivative and setting it to zero, then solve for x. Do you know how to do that?
