- Sketch the graph of a function f which incorporates all the limit & derivative information below: (Be sure to include any asymptotes in your sketch of the graph f) • lim f(x)=0 lim f(x)=−∞ lim f(x)=∞ limf(x)=−∞ lim f(x)=1 • The function values of f, and its first derivative f′(x), and its second derivative, f′′(x), are undefined at x = −2 and at x = 0, and are defined for all other real number values of x. • The first derivative f′(x) is negative on the x-intervals (−∞, −2) and (−2, 0), is positive on the interval (0, 2), is zero at x = 2, and is negative on the interval (2, ∞). • The second derivative f′′(x) is negative on the x-interval (−∞,−2), positive on the interval (−2, −1), has value zero at x = −1, is negative on the intervals (−1, 0) and (0, 3), has value zero at x = 3, and is positive on the interval (3, ∞).arrow_forwardAsymptotes Use analytical methods and/or a graphing utilityto identify the vertical asymptotes (if any) of the following functions.arrow_forwardTrue or False. If a statement below must always be true, write True and give the brief justification . Otherwise, write False, and give an example in which the statement is not true. Your example may be a graph. a.
