We are given the function \( f(x) = 2x - 4 \sin(x) \) over the interval \( 0 \leq x \leq 2\pi \), and we need to analyze its behavior (intercepts, relative extrema, points of inflection, and asymptotes).

### 1. **Intercepts**

**x-intercepts**: To find the x-intercepts, set \( f(x) = 0 \):
\[
2x - 4 \sin(x) = 0
\]
\[
x = 2 \sin(x)
\]
We need to solve this equation numerically for \( x \in [0, 2\pi] \).

**y-intercept**: The y-intercept occurs when \( x = 0 \):
\[
f(0) = 2(0) - 4\sin(0) = 0
\]
Thus, the y-intercept is \( (0, 0) \).

### 2. **Relative Extrema (Maxima and Minima)**

To find the relative extrema, we first find the critical points by taking the derivative and setting it equal to zero.

\[
f'(x) = 2 - 4 \cos(x)
\]
Set \( f'(x) = 0 \):
\[
2 - 4 \cos(x) = 0
\]
\[
\cos(x) = \frac{1}{2}
\]
The solutions to \( \cos(x) = \frac{1}{2} \) are \( x = \frac{\pi}{3} \) and \( x = \frac{5\pi}{3} \) within the interval \( [0, 2\pi] \).

To classify these points as minima or maxima, use the second derivative test.

\[
f''(x) = 4 \sin(x)
\]
Evaluate \( f''(x) \) at the critical points:
- At \( x = \frac{\pi}{3} \), \( \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right) > 0 \), so this is a local minimum.
- At \( x = \frac{5\pi}{3} \), \( \sin\left(\frac{5\pi}{3}\right) < 0 \), so this is a local maximum.

### 3. **Points of Inflection**

Points of inflection occur when the second derivative changes sign, i.e., when \( f''(x) = 0 \):
\[
f''(x) = 4 \sin(x) = 0
\]
\[
\sin(x) = 0
\]
The solutions are \( x = 0, \pi, 2\pi \).

Evaluate the change in concavity around these points. At these points, the second derivative changes sign, indicating inflection points.

### 4. **Asymptotes**

Since the function \( f(x) = 2x - 4 \sin(x) \) is a polynomial combined with a sine function, it does not have any vertical or horizontal asymptotes.

### 5. **Summary**

- **Intercepts**:
  \[
  (0, 0), (\text{Solve } 2x = 4 \sin(x) \text{ numerically for another intercept in } [0, 2\pi])
  \]

- **Relative Minimum**:
  \[
  \left( \frac{\pi}{3}, f\left( \frac{\pi}{3} \right) \right)
  \]

- **Relative Maximum**:
  \[
  \left( \frac{5\pi}{3}, f\left( \frac{5\pi}{3} \right) \right)
  \]

- **Points of Inflection**:
  \[
  (0, f(0)), (\pi, f(\pi)), (2\pi, f(2\pi))
  \]

- **Asymptotes**: DNE (no asymptotes).
