Is this differentiable and continuous?

OpenStudy (loser66):

What is it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

opps I will attach it now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is an online solution; I just don't get how the person got the graph? @Loser66

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(this is non-calculator)

OpenStudy (loser66):

You are correct. It's A, to me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did you do it? did you have to draw a graph first?

OpenStudy (loser66):

you have the whole table. Do you understand it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no; I don't get how you would know that it's concave down 2 halves like that? Like I could have drawn a parabola with those table values, which would make it differentible

OpenStudy (loser66):

for x =-2, then x-2 = -2-2=-4, then take absolute value |-4|=4, then take square root =2, ok?

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

@shirley128 just look at the defintions on google and also just look up the difference between those words you didn't have to ask on here.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just imagine the tangent lines.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@rainbow_rocks03 lol I'm not asking the definitions; sorry the image of the question is attached @wio I don't get it...?

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

oh lol never mind :) hope you get the answer

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

but people plz no direct answers

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

just saying

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

Consider \(g(x) = |x-2|\) and \(h(x) = \sqrt x\). So we have \(f(x) = h(g(x))\) and the derivative is: \[ f'(x) = h'(g(x))g'(x) \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait, maybe you don't know how to do derivatives yet?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@wio yup I'm following that, and then?
