I don't remember how to do this, given the graph of f(x) how can I graph F(x), assuming F(0)=0.

OpenStudy (kainui):

What is F(x)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cheat an imagine that is say \(f(x)=x^2(x-2.5)\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in any case your function will be decreasing until 2.5 then increasing, but the rate of decrease will vary think of what a fourth degree polynomial might look like

OpenStudy (anonymous):

who is this maladjusted child? can't he watch porn or something like every other adolescent ?

OpenStudy (kainui):

True that, at any rate, @iambatman what is F(x)? This entire question is meaningless and we can't answer you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

decreasing more then less than more then less then increasing

OpenStudy (kainui):

@satellite73 What are you talking about?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1410233710653:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah that's what I thought as well Sat

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am assuming that the derivative of F is f

OpenStudy (kainui):

Yeah exactly, is F the derivative of f, or is f the derivative of F? How am I supposed to know, I relinquished my psychic powers years ago.

OpenStudy (kainui):

I do know though that if you assume things...

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

Remember that? c;

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know I read what sort of satellite said and it says assume that F(0) = 0, so from that I know we start at point (0,0) I guess, and draw F as an initially decreasing function since f(x) is negative, so f(0)=0 and f(2.5)= 0, so then F has horizontal tangents when x= 0 and x = 2.5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0<x<2.5 f(x) is decreasing so then F is increasing..I don't really know haha.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

err F is decreasing up till that point then increasing*
