For convenience sake, I will let
y=f(x)=9e^(x)\sin x

First, we evaluate the function at the endpoints of the interval.


f(0)=9e^(0)\sin(0)=0\\\\f(\pi)=9e^(\pi)\sin(\pi)=0

Then, we need to find the critical points.

We can start by taking the derivative using the power rule.


f'(x)=9e^(x) (d)/(dx) \sin x+9\sin x (d)/(dx) e^(x)=9e^(x)(\cos x+\sin x)

Setting this equal to 0,


9e^x (\cos x+\sin x)=0

Since
9e^x > 0, we can divide both sides by
9e^x.


\cos x+\sin x=0\\\\\sin x=-\cos x\\\\\tan x=-1\\\\x=(3\pi)/(4)


f\left((3\pi)/(4) \right)=9e^(3\pi/4)\sin \left((3\pi)/(4) \right)=(9√(2)e^(3\pi/4))/(2)

So, the absolute minimum is
\boxed{\left((3\pi)/(4), (9√(2)e^(3\pi/4))/(√(2)) \right)} and the absolute minima are
\boxed{(0,0), (\pi, 0)}
