Question

Draw a possible graph of y = f(x) given the following information:
     Do this on a separate sheet of paper.

 

            f ′ (x) > 0 for 3 < x < 6

            f ′ (x) < 0 for x < 3

            f ′ (x) < 0 for  x > 6

            f ′ (x) = 0 for x = 3 and x = 6

  a.

the graph is decreasing on (−∞, 3), increasing on (3, 6) and decreasing from (6, ∞)

  b.

the graph is increasing on (−∞, 3), decreasing on  (3, 6) and increasing from (6, ∞)

  c.

the graph is decreasing on (−∞, 3), increasing  on (3, 6) and constant on (6, ∞)

  d.

The graph is decreasing on (−∞, 3), has slope at x = 3 zero and has slope at x = 6 greater than zero, but decreasing from (6, ∞): The function could be decreasing or increasing on (3, 6).

  e.

None of these
