Below is the graph of the derivative f′(x) of a function defined on the interval (0,8). You can click on the graph to see a larger version in a separate window.
Refer to the graph to answer each of the following questions. For parts (A) and (B), use interval notation to report your answer. (If needed, you use U for the union symbol.)
(A) For what values of x in (0,8) is f(x) increasing? (If the function is not increasing anywhere, enter None .)
Answer:
(B) For what values of x in (0,8) is f(x) concave down? (If the function is not concave down anywhere, enter None .)
Answer:
(C) Find all values of x in (0,8) is where f(x) has a local minimum, and list them (separated by commas) in the box below. (If there are no local minima, enter None .)
Local Minima:
(D) Find all values of x in (0,8) is where f(x) has an inflection point, and list them (separated by commas) in the box below. (If there are no inflection points, enter None .)
Inflection Points:
Let f(x)=5x2x2+3
Below, type none if there are none.
Input the interval(s) on which f is increasing.
Input the interval(s) on which f is decreasing.
Find the point(s) at which f achieves a local maximum.
Find the point(s) at which f achieves a local minimum.
Find the interval(s) on which f is concave up.
Find the interval(s) on which f is concave down.
Find all inflection points.
For the function f given above, determine whether the following conditions are true. Input T if the condition is ture, otherwise input F .
(a) f′(x)<0 if 0<x<2;
(b) f′(x)>0 if x>2;
(c) f′′(x)<0 if 0≤x<1;
(d) f′′(x)>0 if 1<x<4.
(e) f′′(x)<0 if x>4;
(f) Two inflection points of f(x) are, the smaller one is x= and the other is x=
For x∈[−15,14] the function f is defined by
