What would the graph look like?

  1. Do not ping the Moderators, unless someone is breaking the rules.
  2. Do not ping the Helper Moderators, unless there is a conflict between helpers.
  3. Do not ping other members randomly for help.
  4. Ask your question and show the work you've done so far. If you've posted a screenshot of a question, specify which part you need help with.
  5. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
  6. If the Helper has answered your question, remember to thank them with the Mathematics Ranks bot and close the thread with:

so, you find concavity, increasing/decreasing, min/max, etc.

using the derivative given, of course

#

so i have the CUP and Concave Down. do i plot those points and connect them?

pallid plinth
#

you cant really "plot" the point

#

its more of sketching it

zenith dome
#

are you able to show me what it looks like?

#

so like, for (2,6) for example, you would have the function decreasing

#

i don't get it

#

is it not at (2.5,6) the graph is going down

#

at (-infinity,2.5) and (6, infinity) the graph is going up

oh, concave down?

pallid plinth
#

i think you got the concept of "concave" wrong.

sturdy plover
#

sorry, i thought you meant any sort of down

pallid plinth
#

concavity is determined by the second derivative

#

i.e. the maximums and minmums of the first derivative
