Concavity and Inflection Points

< Prev
Next >

Let $$f(x)=\frac{1}{3}x^3-2x+1$$. Consider the following statements.

I. A potential inflection point exists at $$x=0$$ because $$f''(x)=2x$$ and $$f''(0)=0$$.

II. The graph of $$f$$ is concave down for $$x<0$$ and concave up for $$x>0$$.

III. The function $$f$$ has a relative minimum at $$x=0$$.

Which of the above statements are true?

A

Statements I and II only are true.

B

All three statements are true.

C

Only statements II and III are true.

D

Only statement III is true.
