Math help plz
I need to simplify this equation to find the inflection point...
|dw:1570424360568:dw|
|dw:1570424722298:dw|
nah...
Aww...
first gid rid of 4
whatever i just said..
|dw:1570424814836:dw|
Am i wrong or am i wrong?
|dw:1570424921042:dw| don't know what that is but yeah x=1/2
nvm
I thought anything divided by 0 is 0...
yes then why did you write 1?
Ummmmm...did i do that?
you should apply ln on both sides
Hold on let me do it again
|dw:1570425030467:dw|
nah...
Wait...
Ln(0) is undefined
Idk then
check your question
did you write it correctly
This is just a tiny part of the much longer question
The whole question is to find the interval where the function \[F(x) = e^{2x-1}\] concaves up and the interval where the function concaves down... and find the point of inflection...
Let me show you what i’ve done so far..
|dw:1570425539818:dw|
Here's what I think, \(e^x\) is always concave up and increasing. It's never concave down, so there shouldn't be any inflection points.
Ok but how do I mathematically prove that??? I need to solve for the x but it seems it’s not possible...
No solutions for x so there's no inflection points
Ok i see. So since there’s no solution ...what i did was...i made a data sheet and i plugged in all values from -3 to +3 into the second and i always gotta a positive y value...
So does that mean the graph only increases ...and never decreases ?
yes
So by that logic... there’s only an interval of increase and no decreasing interval
So since there’s only an increasing interval.... it should go from negative infinite to positive for all values of x correct ?
Because again i’m Only getting positive values for x in the second derivative...that means the original graph is only growing.. positively
ye
Okie thanks :)
