State the signs of f ' and f " on interval(0,2)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok first of all do you know what it means when they say interval [0,2]?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What are the answer choices, if it's a multiple choice?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it just says to give the sign f ' ? 0 and f " ? 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

greater , less or equal to

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm assuming F' is < 0 because it's y-value is higher than the origin and same with F"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry, i meant > not <

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for which one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

both are greater than 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i tried f ' > 0 and f " < 0 and got both wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then i have no idea, sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

OpenStudy (freckles):

f'>0 tells us f is increasing f'<0 tells us f is decreasing

OpenStudy (freckles):

on your given interval reading the graph from left to right is the graph falling or rising?

OpenStudy (freckles):

falling would mean f is decreasing rising would mean f is increasing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so if its falling f'<0 and f">0?

OpenStudy (freckles):

if the function f is concave up f''>0 if the function is concave down f''<0 so what do you think about the f'' part
