To determine the critical points of the function given in the image, the process involves these steps:

Steps:

1. Differentiate the function with respect to $x$ (or the independent variable given).
2. Set the derivative equal to zero to find where the slope of the tangent line is zero.
3. Solve for $x$.
4. Check where the derivative is undefined (if applicable).
5. Evaluate the original function at these $x$-values to find the corresponding $y$-coordinates.

If you upload the image clearly showing the function, I can extract it and compute the critical points for you.

Let me know if you want help with any of these steps or if you'd like to clarify anything further.

Here are related questions to expand your understanding:

1. What are the differences between critical points and inflection points?
2. How can critical points help in identifying the maximum and minimum values of a function?
3. What role do second derivatives play in analyzing critical points?
4. How do we determine whether a critical point is a saddle point in multivariable calculus?
5. How do critical points apply to real-world optimization problems?

Tip: Always check if the critical points are within the domain of the function!
