f (x) = (x^2 + x - 6) e^x
Find the:
a) domain
b) intercepts
c) asymptotes
d) symmetry
e) critical values of the 1st derivative
f) intervals of increase/decrease
g) local and extreme maximum/minimum points
h) critical values of the 2nd derivative
i) concavity
j) points of inflection
* if you can please show the steps, so that I can follow everything
No oobleck, this question is different from yesterday. Have e^x makes it difficult to work with and I’m not sure what numbers I need. Getting critical numbers is harder with this question. I’m not sure i did it right which is why I’m looking for a thorough answer. The whole point is that I know bits and pieces and have given it a try, now I need a solution to see if it’s right!
the problem is different, but the steps are the same
see your repeated post of this question.
If you have come up with a solution, show it, and I can tell whether it's right or not. Not that old dodge of "I want to check my answer." >wink wink<
You want me to show my work, so how about meeting me halfway?
you again? Did you not see how your previous problems were done?
What troubles you about this one?
critical values, max/min: f'=0 and f" ≠ 0
inflection and concavity: use f"
exponentials like e^x have no symmetry
so, how about you at least try to work this one? You must have some idea on at least some of the parts.
