Question 3 of 32

Mathematics
1 answer:
ryzh [129]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The parabola opens to the left, so this eliminates C and D.

Also, the vertex is at (-17, 2), and out of A and B, the only parabola with this vertex is A.

Let f(x)=5x3−60x+5 input the interval(s) on which f is increasing. (-inf,-2)u(2,inf) input the interval(s) on which f is decreas
o-na [289]
Answers:

(a) f is increasing at (-\infty,-2) \cup (2,\infty).

(b) f is decreasing at (-2,2).

(c) f is concave up at (2, \infty)

(d) f is concave down at (-\infty, 2)

Explanations:

(a) f is increasing when the derivative is positive. So, we find values of x such that the derivative is positive. Note that

f'(x) = 15x^2 - 60


So,


f'(x) \ \textgreater \  0
\\
\\ \Leftrightarrow 15x^2 - 60 \ \textgreater \  0
\\
\\ \Leftrightarrow 15(x - 2)(x + 2) \ \textgreater \  0
\\
\\ \Leftrightarrow \boxed{(x - 2)(x + 2) \ \textgreater \  0} \text{   (1)}

The zeroes of (x - 2)(x + 2) are 2 and -2. So we can obtain sign of (x - 2)(x + 2) by considering the following possible values of x:

-->> x < -2
-->> -2 < x < 2
--->> x > 2

If x < -2, then (x - 2) and (x + 2) are both negative. Thus, (x - 2)(x + 2) > 0.

If -2 < x < 2, then x + 2 is positive but x - 2 is negative. So, (x - 2)(x + 2) < 0.
 If x > 2, then (x - 2) and (x + 2) are both positive. Thus, (x - 2)(x + 2) > 0.

So, (x - 2)(x + 2) is positive when x < -2 or x > 2. Since

f'(x) \ \textgreater \  0 \Leftrightarrow (x - 2)(x + 2)  \ \textgreater \  0

Thus, f'(x) > 0 only when x < -2 or x > 2. Hence f is increasing at (-\infty,-2) \cup (2,\infty).

(b) f is decreasing only when the derivative of f is negative. Since

f'(x) = 15x^2 - 60

Using the similar computation in (a), 

f'(x) \ \textless \  \ 0 \\ \\ \Leftrightarrow 15x^2 - 60 \ \textless \  0 \\ \\ \Leftrightarrow 15(x - 2)(x + 2) \ \ \textless \  0 \\ \\ \Leftrightarrow \boxed{(x - 2)(x + 2) \ \textless \  0} \text{ (2)}

Based on the computation in (a), (x - 2)(x + 2) < 0 only when -2 < x < 2.

Thus, f'(x) < 0 if and only if -2 < x < 2. Hence f is decreasing at (-2, 2)

(c) f is concave up if and only if the second derivative of f is positive. Note that

f''(x) = 30x - 60

Since,

f''(x) \ \textgreater \  0&#10;\\&#10;\\ \Leftrightarrow 30x - 60 \ \textgreater \  0&#10;\\&#10;\\ \Leftrightarrow 30(x - 2) \ \textgreater \  0&#10;\\&#10;\\ \Leftrightarrow x - 2 \ \textgreater \  0&#10;\\&#10;\\ \Leftrightarrow \boxed{x \ \textgreater \  2}

Therefore, f is concave up at (2, \infty).

(d) Note that f is concave down if and only if the second derivative of f is negative. Since,

f''(x) = 30x - 60

Using the similar computation in (c), 

f''(x) \ \textless \  0 &#10;\\ \\ \Leftrightarrow 30x - 60 \ \textless \  0 &#10;\\ \\ \Leftrightarrow 30(x - 2) \ \textless \  0 &#10;\\ \\ \Leftrightarrow x - 2 \ \textless \  0 &#10;\\ \\ \Leftrightarrow \boxed{x \ \textless \  2}

Therefore, f is concave down at (-\infty, 2).
