Using a graphing utility, we can see that the function has a relative minimum at x = -2 and a relative maximum at x = 2. Option B correctly identifies the relative maximum at x = 2. The other options incorrectly identify either a minimum or do not identify any extrema. Therefore, the best choice is B.
