So in this question, they say, assume i have a function f that's differentiable on the interval from negative infinity to infinity.
00:08
And i want to know whether the following statement is true or false.
00:13
The statement is if f has exactly two critical values at x equals a and x equals b, where a is less than b, then there must exist exactly one point of inflection at x equals c, where c lives between a and x equals b.
00:30
In other words, exactly one point of inflection must exist between any two critical values.
00:39
Turns out this statement is not true.
00:41
Although it's true many times, this is not true.
00:46
Indeed, this is false, and there can be multiple inflection points between two critical values.
00:57
Let's see how that works.
01:00
Suppose i had a function, and i have a relative maximum here, so i have a critical maximum here, critical point...
