- Given the function:
- A.
- Enter as a function
- B.
- Plot the function on the interval
- C.
- Find the fifth order derivative using the D command.
- D.
- Find the fifth order derivative using the diff command.
- E.
- Plot the second derivative. About where does the second derivative graph cross the x-axis? Knowing that the second derivative represents concavity explain why your second derivative plot makes sense in conjunction with the plot of the original function.
