Question

Use a graphing calculator or a CAS to plot the graph of each of the following functions on [-1,7]. Determine the coordinates of any global extrema and any inflection points. You should be able to give answers that are accurate to at least one decimal place. (a) f(x)=xx26x+40f(x)=x \sqrt{x^2-6 x+40} (b) f(x)=x(x26x+40)f(x)=\sqrt{|x|}\left(x^2-6 x+40\right) (c) f(x)=x26x+40/(x2)f(x)=\sqrt{x^2-6 x+40} /(x-2) (d) f(x)=sin[(x26x+40)/6]f(x)=\sin \left[\left(x^2-6 x+40\right) / 6\right]

(a)

Since, the function is increasing, thus the maxima in the interval [1,7] is f(7)47.99.\text{Since, the function is increasing, thus the maxima in the interval } [-1,7] \text{ is } f(7)\approx 47.99.

The minima is f(1)6.86, and the inflection point is (2.03,11.47).\text{The minima is } f(-1)\approx -6.86, \text{ and the inflection point is } (2.03, 11.47).
