Concept explainers
Combining technology with analytical methods Use a graphing utility together with analytical methods to create a complete graph of the following functions. Be sure to find and label the intercepts, local extrema, inflection points, and asymptotes, and find the intervals on which the function is increasing or decreasing, and the intervals on which the function is concave up or concave down.

- Functions of the form f(x) = 5 · bkx for k = ±1 will be examined to study the effect of the parameter b on the graph. (a) Graph the function f(x) =5 · 2x. Use the graph to determine the y-values at x-values of −2, −1, 0, 1, and 2. For every increase of 1 in the x-value, the y-value can be found from the previous y-value by ---Select--- the addition of a constant multiplication by a constant . The constant is equal to . (b) Graph the function f(x) = 5 · 0.5x. Use the graph to determine the y-values at x-values of −2, −1, 0, 1, and 2. For every increase of 1 in the x-value, the y-value can be found from the previous y-value by ---Select--- the addition of a constant multiplication by a constant . The constant is equal to . (c) Graph the function f(x) = 5 · 2−x. Use the graph to determine the y-values at x-values of −2, −1, 0, 1, and 2.

For the function f(x)=x^3/3 - x^2 - 24x +19 i) determine the turning point and the values of the function at each turning point. ii) determine the point of inflection, any exist iii) what is the range of value over which the function is strictly increasingarrow_forward
- True or false: 7. The points of inflection are found by solving the first derivative equal to Zero 8. When the denominator of a rational function is zero the function will always have a vertical asymptote 9. To determine the behavior of a function near the vertical asymptotes we use left and right-hand limits. 10. Determining if a local extrema is a maximum or minimum cannot be done using the second derivative test 11.A function can never cross asymptotes 12.To determine the end behavior of a function we must check the lim x-> -/+ infinityarrow_forward(2) For the function f (x) = x3/3 - x2 - 24x + 19 (i) Determine the turning points and the values of the function at each turning point. (ii) Determine the point of inflection, any exist.

Use the First Derivative Test for each critical point to determine whether it is a local minimum or maximum (or neither). (Use symbolic notation and fractions where needed. Give your answer in the form of comma separated list. Enter NULL if there are no critical points.) Open interval(s) where sign of the derivative implies the function is increasing: help (intervals) Open interval(s) where sign of the derivative implies the function is decreasing: help (intervals) Critical point(s) with local minimum: c=c= help (numbers) Critical point(s) with local maximum: c=c= Critical point(s) without a local min or max: c=c=arrow_forwardA rancher with 120 meters of fencing wants to enclose a rectangular region along a river (which serves as a boundary requiring no fencing) Find the length and width of the region and the maximum area that can be enclosed. A) express the area of the region as a function of the length x of the side parallel to the river what are the dimensions ______ by ______ and what is the maximum area in m^2arrow_forward
