Let f(x) = x³ – 5x² + 2x - 5. Find the open intervals on which f is concave up (down). Then determine the x-
coordinates of all inflection points of f.
f is concave up on the intervals
2. f is concave down on the intervals
3. The inflection points occur at
1.
Notes: In the first two, your answer should either be a single interval, such as (0,1), a comma separated list of
intervals, such as (-inf, 2), (3,4), or the word "none".
In the last one, your answer should be a comma separated list of a values or the word "none".
