Consider the function f(x)=x2/3(6−x)1/3. Which of the following statement is FALSE?
Choose the correct answer:
A.
f is increasing in the interval (0,4)
B.
f is decreasing in the interval (6,∞)
C.
f has a point of inflection at x=0
(Correct Answer)
D.
f has a point of inflection at x=6
Correct Answer:
f has a point of inflection at x=0
Explanation
f(x)=x2/3⋅(6−x)1/3 f′(x)=x2/3⋅31⋅(6−x)−2/3+32⋅(6−x)1/3⋅x−1/3 f′(x)=x−1/3⋅(6−x)−2/3⋅(−3x+32(6−x)) f′(x)=x1/3(x−6)2/31(−3x+4−32x) f′(x)=−x1/3(x−6)2/31(x−4) f has a point of inflection at x=0
Explanation
f(x)=x2/3⋅(6−x)1/3 f′(x)=x2/3⋅31⋅(6−x)−2/3+32⋅(6−x)1/3⋅x−1/3 f′(x)=x−1/3⋅(6−x)−2/3⋅(−3x+32(6−x)) f′(x)=x1/3(x−6)2/31(−3x+4−32x) f′(x)=−x1/3(x−6)2/31(x−4) f has a point of inflection at x=0
