Question
Produce graphs of f that reveal all the important aspects of the curve. In particular, you should use graphs of \(f^{\prime} \text { and } f^{\prime \prime}\) to estimate the intervals of increase and decrease, extreme values, intervals of concavity, and inflection points.
\(f(x)=\frac{x^{4}-x^{3}-8}{x^{2}-x-6}\)
Solution
The first step in solving 4.6 problem number trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Produce graphs of f that reveal all the important aspects of the curve. In particular, you should use graphs of \(f^{\prime} \text { and } f^{\prime \prime}\) to estimate the intervals of increase and decrease, extreme values, intervals of concavity, and inflection points.\(f(x)=\frac{x^{4}-x^{3}-8}{x^{2}-x-6}\)
From the textbook chapter Graphing with Calculus and Technology you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
