Question

Select the graph which satisfies all of the given conditions.

Show/Explain how you arrived at your answer. 

**Select the graph which satisfies all of the given conditions.**

- \( f'(-3) = f'(2) = 0 \)

- Increasing on \((-3, 2) \cup (2, \infty)\)

- Decreasing on \((-\infty, -3)\)

- \( f''\left(-\frac{4}{3}\right) = f''(2) = 0 \)

- Concave upward on \((-\infty, -\frac{4}{3}) \cup (2, \infty)\)

- Concave downward on \(\left(-\frac{4}{3}, 2\right)\)

Transcribed Image Text:**Select the graph which satisfies all of the given conditions.** - \( f'(-3) = f'(2) = 0 \) - Increasing on \((-3, 2) \cup (2, \infty)\) - Decreasing on \((-\infty, -3)\) - \( f''\left(-\frac{4}{3}\right) = f''(2) = 0 \) - Concave upward on \((-\infty, -\frac{4}{3}) \cup (2, \infty)\) - Concave downward on \(\left(-\frac{4}{3}, 2\right)\)
The image contains five graphs displaying different polynomial functions. Each graph has the following characteristics:

1. **Graph 1:**
   - The curve starts below the x-axis, moves above it, and then sharply descends.
   - It then rises again, displaying a local maximum.
   - Finally, the graph curves upwards steeply, crossing the x-axis.
   - The y-axis is labeled from -60 to 60, and the x-axis centers at 0.

2. **Graph 2:**
   - The curve shows a similar initial dip and peak as Graph 1, but then it has a higher rising curve.
   - This time, there is another dip, before rising into a steep incline.
   - The axes are similarly scaled to the first graph.

3. **Graph 3:**
   - The curve begins with a downward slope, crosses the x-axis, and peaks before descending sharply.
   - After reaching a local minimum, it climbs again and crosses the x-axis.
   - This graph has a focus on a balance between positive and negative y-axis values.

4. **Graph 4:**
   - It has a steep initial decline to a local minimum, followed by a small peak and then another decline.
   - There is another rise afterwards.
   - The graph fluctuates above and below the x-axis, covering both positive and negative values.

5. **Graph 5:**
   - The pattern starts with a steep initial rise, reaching a local maximum.
   - It follows with a steep descent dipping below the x-axis, and then another rise.
   - The function displays a tight set of fluctuating values, crossing the x-axis multiple times.

Overall, each graph represents a distinct polynomial function, characterized by varying degrees and behavior of curves. They highlight concepts such as local maxima and minima, inflection points, and x-axis intersections which are critical in understanding polynomial behavior.
