inflection f(x)=-x^4-7x^3+3x+8

inflection

(- \frac{7}{2}, \frac{2361}{16}), (0, 8)

Solution steps

f^{''} (x) = - 12 x^{2} - 42 x

Find intervals:

Concave Downward

: - \infty < x < - \frac{7}{2},

Concave Upward

: - \frac{7}{2} < x < 0,

Concave Downward

: 0 < x < \infty

Plug

x = - \frac{7}{2}

into

- x^{4} - 7 x^{3} + 3 x + 8 : \frac{2361}{16}

(- \frac{7}{2}, \frac{2361}{16})

Plug

x = 0

into

- x^{4} - 7 x^{3} + 3 x + 8 : 8

(0, 8)

(- \frac{7}{2}, \frac{2361}{16}), (0, 8)
