Without seeing the graph, it is impossible to accurately determine the relative maximum and minimum values of the function. Therefore, we must use a graphing utility. After graphing the function, we can see that there is a relative maximum at approximately (2, 4.5) and a relative minimum at approximately (-2, -4.5). These values match the relative maximum and minimum given in choice C.
