Example 9.1.25 - Figures appear too far from problem statement

[APEXCalculus]

@sean-fitzpatrick : In the .pdf, Example 9.1.25 provides 4 sequences and asks to determine the monotonicity of each. The begins currently at the top of page 451.

The work is somewhat long, and the figures appear in a side-by-side on page 453.

I went to do the work of putting the figures in the margin next to the work on each problem, but quickly realized my PreTeXt skills are not reliable enough to disentangle the figures from the SBS into individual figs.

1. Would you agree that moving the figures is better?
2. How hard is it to do this?

This isn't hard to change. Right now the structure looks like this:

<figure>
  <caption>...</caption>
  <sbsgroup>
    <sidebyside>
      <figure>
        <caption/>
        Image stuff
      </figure>
      <figure>
        <caption/>
        Image stuff
      </figure>
    </sidebyside>
    <sidebyside>
      <figure>
        <caption/>
        Image stuff
      </figure>
      <figure>
        <caption/>
        Image stuff
      </figure>
    </sidebyside>
  </sbsgroup>
</figure>

You want to rip out the enclosing figure, sbsgroup, and the two sidebyside, leaving four figures behind.
Right now they are sub-figures, so their captions are empty. But you're losing the enclosing figure and caption, so you'll have to write individual captions for each figure.

Then copy-paste each one where you want it to go.

To get them in the margin, you'll need to add a vshift attribute to each figure.
Start with vshift="0" and then adjust as needed.

I'm off today but if you get stuck on this I can help tomorrow.

PS i updated the devcontainer file to use the latest version of Oscar's Docker container. It should have the xcoffins package, but you probably have to start a new codespace

I'll give it a shot - don't beat me to it. It is likely that I'll successfully make the switch then not like how it looks.
