In the diagram shown, B and D are stationary points, and C is a point of inflection. Complete the table by indicating whether each value is zero, positive, or negative: Point | f(x) | f'(x) | f''(x) --- | --- | --- | --- A | + | | B | | | C | | | D | | 0 | E | | |

Step 1
f(c): This represents the value of the function at point c. Since B is a stationary point, the value of the function at B is zero. So, f(c) = 0. Show more…

10. For each of the functions f(x) whose graphs are given below, sketch two functions F(x) whose derivative is F'(x) = f(x). For the first function, let F(0) = 0; in the second function, let F(0) = 1. Then, identify the local maxima, minima, and inflection points of each of your functions F(x).
