OpenStudy (freckles):

so have you found f' or f'' yet?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (freckles):

well we aren't really going to use the f' we just needed the f' to find f''

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (freckles):

find the places where you have the concavity is 0 or in other words first solve f''(x)=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's where I'm stuck at

OpenStudy (freckles):

you should be able to factor the expression that is called f''

OpenStudy (freckles):

can i see your f''?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[f''(x)=12x ^{2}-24x=0\]

OpenStudy (freckles):

So do you see any common factors among the terms 12x^2 and -24x ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12?

OpenStudy (freckles):

what about the factor x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so we have 12x(x-2)?
