Topic 5.6: Determining Concavity of Functions over Their Domains
Learning Objective: FUN-4.A
Justify conclusions about the behavior of a function based on the behavior of its derivatives.
Essential Knowledge: FUN-4.A.4
The graph of a function is concave up (down) on an open interval if the function’s derivative is increasing (decreasing) on that interval.
Essential Knowledge: FUN-4.A.5
The second derivative of a function provides information about the function and its graph, including intervals of upward or downward concavity.
Essential Knowledge: FUN-4.A.6
The second derivative of a function may be used to locate points of inflection for the graph of the original function.
