Question
Suppose that
f(x) = (1 − x)(x+5)².
(A) Find all critical values of f. If there are no critical values, enter -1000. If there are more than one, enter them separated by commas.
Critical value(s) = -5,-1
(B) Use interval notation to indicate where f(x) is increasing.
Note: When using interval notation in WeBWorK, you use I for ∞, -l for -∞, and U for the union symbol. If there are no values that satisfy the required condition, then
enter "{}" without the quotation marks.
Increasing:
(C) Use interval notation to indicate where f(x) is decreasing.
Decreasing:
(D) Find the x-coordinates of all local maxima of f. If there are no local maxima, enter -1000. If there are more than one, enter them separated by commas.
Local maxima at x =
-1
(E) Find the x-coordinates of all local minima of f. If there are no local minima, enter -1000. If there are more than one, enter them separated by commas.
Local minima at x = -5
(F) Use interval notation to indicate where f(x) is concave up.
Concave up:
(G) Use interval notation to indicate where f(x) is concave down.
Concave down:
(H) Find all inflection points of f. If there are no inflection points, enter -1000. If there are more than one, enter them separated by commas.
Inflection point(s) at x =
