Answer:

(-∞, -2), (-2, -0.618), and (1.618, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The red plus (+) signs indicate the regions in which the function is concave up, and the red negative (-) signs indicate the regions in which the function is concave down.

Note that the sign of the concavity changes at an inflection point.

Let's examine the intervals given.

(-∞, -2): Yes, concave up.

(-∞, -1.17): No. Concave up in (-∞, -2) but concave down in (-2, -1.17).

(-2, 0): No. Concave down in (-2, -1.17) but increasing in (-1.17, 0.0).

(-1.17, 0.689): Yes. Concave up.

(-0.618, 1.618): No. Concave up in (-0.618, 0.689) but concave down in (0.689, 1.618).

(0, 3): No. Concave up in (0, 0.689), concave down in (0.689, 2.481), and concave up in (2.481, 3).

(2.481, ∞): Yes. Concave up.

The three intervals that are concave up are (-∞, -2), (-1.17, -0.689), and (2.481, ∞).

Evaluate the piecewise function for the given values.
adoni [48]

Answer:

f(-3) = -2

f(-2.6) = -2

f(0.6) = 2.4

f(4.5) = 8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

(Whole question:

Evaluate the piecewise function for the given values.

Find f(-3), f(-2,6), f(0.6), and f(4.5) for f(x)={ -2 If x ≤ 0 4x. If 0 <x <1. x + 4. If x ≥ 1)

As the piecewise function shows, the function f(x) has the value of -2 for values of x lesser or equal than 0, has the value of 4x if the value of x is between 0 and 1, and has the value of x+4 for values of x greater or equal than 1.

So, for f(-3), the value of x is lesser than 0, so we have that f(-3) = -2

For f(-2.6), the value of x is lesser than 0, so we have that f(-3) = -2

For f(0.6), the value of x is between 0 and 1, so we have that f(0.6) = 4*0.6 = 2.4

For f(4.5), the value of x is greater than 1, so we have that f(4.5) = 4.5 + 4 = 8.5
