The graph of y = f (x) is shown below on the domain [0, 5]. Sketch the graph of y = f ′′(x) on the same domain.
@zepdrix
probably a line
this looks like a cubic the first derivative would be a quadratic the second derivative would be a line
So what would that look like? @satellite73
Upload a picture or something :P I don't want to download your dirty virus filled pdf file XD lol
Lol okay let me attempt to do that.
I am not sure how to make it look bigger.
cubic with positive leading coefficient first derivative is a parabola where \(f\) is increasing \(f'\) is positive, then where \(f\) is deceasing, \(f'\) is negative, then \(f'\) is positive again draw a nice parabola for that one
btw is it clear than "positive" is a synonym for "above the x axis"?
Okay so would it start from 3 and up from there? Sorry Im am not good at explaining this.
the zeros of your parabola will be the local max and min of your function, namely 1 and 3
|dw:1475194331176:dw|We have an inflection point somewhere around here, the graph changes from CCD to CCU. So our second derivative will be zero at this location.
