The normal probability density function g(x) = ov2n Where u = mean, o = standard deviation, n = 3.14159, e 2.71828 Let's study a special case where u = 0 and o = 1, which indicates a standard normal probability density function. For simplicity, we scale the function so as to remove the factor 1/(ov2n). Now, we have a new function f(x) f(x) = e (a) Find f'(x) and show the intervals of increase or decrease for f. (b) Find the extreme value of f. (c) Find the intervals of concavity and the inflection points. (d) Sketch the graph of f and point out the extremum value and inflection points.
