First, we obtain the first derivative, y ′ = 3-3x2 = - 3 (x + 1) (x-1), let y ′ < 0, and obtain monotone decreasing intervals (- ∞, - 1) and (1, + ∞); let y ′≥ 0, and obtain monotone increasing intervals [- 1, - 1]; let y ′ = 0, and obtain stationary points x = - 1 and x = 1, and the increase or decrease of these two points changes, where when x = - 1, we obtain
