  1. Shown below is a graph of the derivative, f '(x). Use the graph to answer the following questions.
    1. Is f(x) increasing or decreasing at x = 0.5? How do you know?






    2. Is f(x) concave up or concave down at x = 2? How do you know?






    3. Estimate f ''(2).











    4. For values of x from 0 to 3, f(x) has three stationary points. Give the x-coordinates of each stationary point of f(x) and decide if each is a local max (hilltop), local min (valley bottom) or neither (chairseat) on the graph of f(x).













    5. At which values of x does f(x) have points of inflection?







  1. Shown below are three functions A, B and C. One is g(x), one is g'(x) and one is g''(x). Decide which is which and describe how you know which is which.
