CPM Homework Help : CALC Problem 3-117

Hint:

Be careful! The clues give information about f '(x), but you are asked to sketch f(x).

Hint 1:

Translate: When x is greater than −3, f(x) is increasing and concave up.

Hint 2:

Translate: When x is in between −3 and −1, f(x) is increasing and concave down.

Hint 3:

Translate: When x is exactly −1, f(x) has reached a local maximum or minimum.

Hint 4:

Translate: When x is greater than −1, f(x) is decreasing and concave down.

Graph:

Remember that this graph is based on a slope statement. Without information about the exact y-values of f(x),the entire sketch can be shifted vertically up or vertically down.
