Find a formula for the following function. A curve of the form y = e – (x – a)2/b for b > 0 with a local maximum at x = 32 and points of inflection at x = 36 and x = 28.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are the definitions of local maximum and point of inflection? Consider those and then solve the system that results.

Hmmm...unless I'm missing something...it looks like a parablola concave down....points of inflection?????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea true lol. can't have points of inflection if it's degree 2
