Question

I understand a & c but need help with b & d

Let f be the continuous function defined on [−4, 3]
whose graph, consisting of three line segments and a
semicircle centered at the origin, is given above. Let g
be the function given by g(x) = f* f(t) dt.
(a) Find the values of g(2) and g(-2).
(b) For each of g′(−3) and g”(–3), find the value or
state that it does not exist.
(-4,1)
(-2, 3)
O
(1,0)
(3,-1)
(c) Find the x-coordinate of each point at which the
graph of g has a horizontal tangent line. For each
Graph of f
of these points, determine whether g has a relative minimum, relative maximum, or neither a minimum nor
a maximum at the point. Justify your answers.
(d) For -4 < x < 3, find all values of x for which the graph of g has a point of inflection. Explain your
reasoning.
