I'm once again, hoping to get confirmation on an answer I came up with on a problem.
Problem Reads:
Sketch the graph and show all local extrema and inflection points of f(x) = 24x/(x^2 + 9)
I came up with:
Local Max at (3, 4)
Local Min at (-3, -4)
Inflection Points at ( sqrt(27), sqrt(12) ) and ( -sqrt(27), -sqrt(12) )
this results in
the graph decreasing (-infinity, -3), (3, infinity)
the graph increasing (-3, 3)
Concave up ( -sqrt(27), 0 )
Concave Down (0, sqrt (27) )
Hopefully I figured it correctly. If not, can you provide some direction on where my math went wrong?
