Graph the function f(x) = − x4 + 7x3 − 9x2 − 3x + 10 using graphing technology and identify for which values of x the graph is decreasing.
did you graph the thing ?
I have no idea how.
It says to use a computer. Look where the function has tangent lines with negative slopes...
ok so would it be x=0 and x=1?
Those are two points that are on a decreasing part of the function.... they are loooking for the entire interval(s)
I don't uunderstand
For instance, the function is decreasing for x, when -0.14 < X < 1.28
ok. I see, I see.
Is this for calculus 1 or algebra
Thank you:) Can describe the end behavior of f(x) = 3x32 + 8x2 − 22x + 43.
calulus 1
Planning to take AP Cal BC next year
describe the end behavior of f(x) = 3x32 + 8x2 − 22x + 43.
is the answer up on the left, and down on the right?
ok, have you done the first derivative test for increasing/decreasing intervals
No. Not yet
i'm doing it at BC and my teacher has no idea what she's doing.
