HI!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hello

OpenStudy (misty1212):

for the first one, check if \(f'(2)=-8\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it does not

OpenStudy (misty1212):

which i didn't check but i really doubt it is true

OpenStudy (misty1212):

ok then I is wrong

OpenStudy (misty1212):

for the second one, check if \(f'(x)>0\) on \((1,4)\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can plug that into the calculator right/

OpenStudy (misty1212):

you can pretty much do it with your eyeballs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is not great then zero

OpenStudy (misty1212):

the denominator is always positive oh actually just plug in a number between 1 and 4 in to \(f'\) and see if the output is positive or negative

OpenStudy (misty1212):

no, it is negative on that interval so II is wrong

OpenStudy (misty1212):

i guess that leaves III which is true, because the derivative goes from being negative to positive at 4, so the function goes from decreasing to increasing, so 4 gives a relative min

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wow thank you!

OpenStudy (pawanyadav):

Also at x=4 f'(x)=0 so it may be minimum.
