Question: For each function and graph in Problems below (a) Use the graph to identify x-values for which y' Ë 0, y'Ë 0, y'=0, and y'

For each function and graph in Problems below
(a) Use the graph to identify x-values for which y' ˃ 0, y'˂ 0, y'=0, and y' does not exist.
(b) Use the derivative to check your conclusions.
1. y = 6 - x - x2

2 -2- 4 -4

2. y = 1/2x2 - 4x + 1

2 4 6 /8 10 12 14 -6 -8 -10

3. y = 6 + x3 - 1/15 x5

2 -2- 4 -4 2 4 6 /8 10 12 14 -6

4. y = x 4 - 2x2 -1

-8 -10

2 -2- 4 -4 2 4 6 /8 10 12 14 -6 -8 -10
