6. Suppose that f(x) is continuous on [0,6] and f(0) = f(4) = 0. The graph of f'(x) is given as below, but values of f'(1), f"(2) and f'(4) are not determined. It is known that


(c) Find intervals on which y = f(x) is concave upward. Find intervals on which y = f(x) is concave downward. Find the inflection points of f(x).

我們可以利用一階導數來判斷其凹口向上或向下,如果一邊是向下而另一邊向上(則為反曲點),同理相反也是
在區間[0,1],圖形是一條右上的曲線(一階導數向上),凹口向上
而在區間[1,2],圖形是由-1到-2,(一階導數向下),凹口向下
而關鍵在這,x=1處圖形由正變成負,代表其為反曲點
接下來區間[2,4],圖形從-2一路衝到無窮大,一階導數向上,所以x=2是反曲點
而區間[4,5],圖形從-無窮大一路衝到x軸(一階導數向上)(凹口向上)
而區間[5,6],圖形過了最高點後一路往下坡,由上升變下降所以x=5為反曲點
所以可以得到
