- In Exercises15–36, find the points of inflection and discuss theconcavity of the graph of the function. f(x)=\frac{6-x}{\sqrt{x}}arrow_forwardFor Exercises 65–68, complete the statements for the function provided.arrow_forwardIn Exercises 29–30, find f(-x) – f(x) for the given function f. Then simplify the expression. 29. f(x) = x + x - 5 30. f(x) = x² – 3x + 7arrow_forward
- The function f(x) = 0.4x2 – 36x + 1000 models the number of accidents, f(x), per 50 million miles driven as a function of a driver's age, x, in years, for drivers from ages 16 through 74, inclusive. The graph of f is shown. Use the equation for f to solve Exercises 45–48. 1000 flx) = 0.4x2 – 36x + 1000 16 45 74 Age of Driver 45. Find and interpret f(20). Identify this information as a point on the graph of f. 46. Find and interpret f(50). Identify this information as a point on the graph of f. 47. For what value of x does the graph reach its lowest point? Use the equation for f to find the minimum value of y. Describe the practical significance of this minimum value. 48. Use the graph to identify two different ages for which drivers have the same number of accidents. Use the equation for f to find the number of accidents for drivers at each of these ages. Number of Accidents (per 50 million miles)arrow_forwardFind the natural domain and graph the functions in Exercises 15–20.arrow_forwardIn Exercises 41–44, sketch a possible graph for a function f that hasthe stated properties.arrow_forward
- Exercises 111-114: Determine the domain and range of function f. Use interval notation. 111. f(x) = =(x + 1)² – 5 112. f(x) = 2(x – 5)² + 10 113. f(x) = V-x – 4 – 2 114. f(x) = -Vx – 1 + 3arrow_forwardGraph the functions in Exercises 25–28.arrow_forwardIn Exercises 37–40, use the vertical line test (see Exercise 35) to determine whether the curve is the graph of a function.arrow_forward
- In Exercises 79–82, find a function that satisfies the given conditions and sketch its graph. (The answers here are not unique. Any function that satisfies the conditions is acceptable. Feel free to use formulas defined in pieces if that will help.)arrow_forwardFor each graph in Exercises 61–72, find a function whosegraph looks like the one shown. When you are finished, usea graphing utility to check that your function f has the properties and features of the given graph.arrow_forwardConsider the following function: 4х 7x -20 1 -1 f(x) = 3 -7x 20 7 2 -x 11 0 0 1 a) What is the highest order of x in this function? b) The coefficient of x in the function isarrow_forward
