Absolute Max and Min Values
 Definition
step 1: find the corresponding y-values for the end points, that is, find f(0) and f(9)
step 2: find f'(x), set it equal to zero and solve for x. these are the critical values
step 3: find the corresponding y-value for EACH critical x-value.
step 4: compare all the y-values you have found so far. the largest one is the absolute max, the smallest one is the absolute min.
