Find the Points of Inflection and Discuss the Concavity of the Function

Question 142

Multiple Choice

Find the points of inflection and discuss the concavity of the function f(x) =sinx+cosx on the interval (0,2π) f ( x ) = - \sin x + \cos x \text { on the interval } ( 0,2 \pi ) .


A) no inflection points. concave up on (0,2π) ( 0,2 \pi )
B) concave upward on (0,12π) \left( 0 , \frac { 1 } { 2 } \pi \right) ; concave downward on (52π,2π) \left( \frac { 5 } { 2 } \pi , 2 \pi \right) ; inflection point at (0,12π) \left( 0 , \frac { 1 } { 2 } \pi \right)
C) no inflection points. concave down on (0,2π) ( 0,2 \pi )
D) concave downward on (0,12π) \left( 0 , \frac { 1 } { 2 } \pi \right) ; concave upward on (52π,2π) \left( \frac { 5 } { 2 } \pi , 2 \pi \right) ; inflection point at (0,12π) \left( 0 , \frac { 1 } { 2 } \pi \right)
E) none of the above
