Question
**Graph of the Derivative of Function \( f \)**

The graph depicts the derivative of the function \( f \). Our objective is to determine the \( x \)-coordinates of all stationary and singular points of \( f \), classifying each as a relative maximum, relative minimum, or neither. It is given that \( f(x) \) is defined and continuous throughout the interval \([-18, 18]\).

**Graph Analysis:**

- The \( y \)-axis represents the value of the derivative \( f'(x) \).
- The \( x \)-axis represents the input values for the function.
- The graph shows how the derivative behaves across the given interval:
  - The graph crosses the \( x \)-axis at several points, indicating potential stationary points where the derivative equals zero.

**Classification and Points:**

1. **Stationary Non-Extreme Point:**
   - At \( x = -6 \): The graph indicates a crossing at this point without a change of direction, suggesting a possible inflection point.

2. **Singular Minimum:**
   - No singular minimum is identified from the graph.

3. **Stationary Maximum:**
   - No stationary maximum is indicated in the options.

**Conclusion:**
Based on the graph, the only identified and classified point is a stationary non-extreme point at \( x = -6 \). Other classifications require a change in the direction of the derivative at zero which is not observed here.
