Question(7 pts) Let f(x)f(x) be a twice differentiable function and the graph of the derivative f(x)f^{\prime}(x) is given below. i) f(x)f(x) is increasing on the interval (1,2)(1,2). ii) f(x)f(x) is decreasing on the interval (2,5)(2,5). iii) (5,f(5))(5, f(5)) is a critical point of f(x)f(x). iv) (3.5,f(3.5))(3.5, f(3.5)) is an inflection point of f(x)f(x).
Choose all the correct statements

Studdy Solution
An inflection point occurs where the concavity changes, which is indicated by a change in the sign of f(x) f''(x) or where f(x) f'(x) changes from increasing to decreasing or vice versa.
The graph shows a change in the slope of f(x) f'(x) at x=3.5 x = 3.5 , indicating an inflection point at (3.5,f(3.5)) (3.5, f(3.5)) .
The correct statements are: i) f(x) f(x) is increasing on the interval (1,2) (1,2) . ii) f(x) f(x) is decreasing on the interval (2,5) (2,5) . iii) (5,f(5)) (5, f(5)) is a critical point of f(x) f(x) . iv) (3.5,f(3.5)) (3.5, f(3.5)) is an inflection point of f(x) f(x) .
All statements are correct.
