Point of inflection does not exist (DNE). Concave upward: \( (0, 2\pi) \) Concave downward: DNE

Solución

To find the points of inflection and determine the concavity of the function \( f(x) = 10 \csc\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right) \), we need to follow these steps: 1. **Find the second derivative \( f''(x) \)**. 2. **Set \( f''(x) = 0 \) to find potential points of inflection**. 3. **Determine the sign of \( f''(x) \) to find intervals of concavity**. Let's start by calculating the first and second derivatives of the function. ### Step 1: First Derivative The first derivative \( f'(x) \) can be found using the derivative of the cosecant function. The derivative of \( \csc(u) \) is \( -\csc(u) \cot(u) \cdot u' \). Let \( u = \frac{3x}{2} \), then \( u' = \frac{3}{2} \). Thus, the first derivative is: \[ f'(x) = 10 \cdot -\csc\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right) \cot\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right) \cdot \frac{3}{2} \] ### Step 2: Second Derivative Now, we need to differentiate \( f'(x) \) to find \( f''(x) \). Let's calculate \( f'(x) \) first and then differentiate it to find \( f''(x) \). ### Step 3: Find Points of Inflection After finding \( f''(x) \), we will set it to zero and solve for \( x \). ### Step 4: Determine Concavity We will analyze the sign of \( f''(x) \) to determine the intervals of concavity. Let's perform the calculations for \( f'(x) \) and \( f''(x) \). Evaluate the derivative by following steps: - step0: Solution: \(\left(f\right)^{\prime}\times x\) - step1: Find the derivative: \(1\times x\) - step2: Multiply: \(x\) Calculate or simplify the expression \( 10 * -\csc(3x/2) * \cot(3x/2) * (3/2) \). Simplify the expression by following steps: - step0: Solution: \(10\left(-\csc\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\right)\cot\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\times \frac{3}{2}\) - step1: Rewrite the expression: \(10\left(-1\right)\csc\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\cot\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\times \frac{3}{2}\) - step2: Use the rules for multiplication and division: \(-10\csc\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\cot\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\times \frac{3}{2}\) - step3: Multiply the terms: \(-15\csc\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\cot\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\) - step4: Calculate: \(-15\times \frac{1}{\sin\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)}\times \cot\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\) - step5: Calculate: \(-15\times \frac{1}{\sin\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)}\times \frac{\cos\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)}{\sin\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)}\) - step6: Calculate: \(-\frac{15\cos\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)}{\sin^{2}\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)}\) - step7: Rewrite the expression: \(-15\sin^{-2}\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\cos\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\) - step8: Calculate: \(-15\left(1+\cot^{2}\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\right)\cos\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\) - step9: Calculate: \(\left(-15-15\cot^{2}\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\right)\cos\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\) - step10: Rewrite the expression: \(-15\cos\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)-15\cos\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\cot^{2}\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\) - step11: Calculate: \(-15\cos\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)-15\cos\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\left(\csc^{2}\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)-1\right)\) - step12: Calculate: \(-15\csc^{2}\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\cos\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right)\) The first derivative of the function is: \[ f'(x) = -15 \csc^{2}\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right) \cos\left(\frac{3x}{2}\right) \] Now, let's find the second derivative \( f''(x) \). The result indicates that \( f''(x) = x \). ### Step 5: Find Points of Inflection To find the points of inflection, we set \( f''(x) = 0 \): \[ x = 0 \] ### Step 6: Determine Concavity Next, we need to analyze the sign of \( f''(x) \) around the point \( x = 0 \): - For \( x < 0 \), \( f''(x) < 0 \) (concave downward). - For \( x > 0 \), \( f''(x) > 0 \) (concave upward). ### Summary of Results 1. **Point of Inflection**: - \( (x, y) = (0, f(0)) \) - We need to calculate \( f(0) \): \[ f(0) = 10 \csc(0) \text{ (undefined)} \] Therefore, the point of inflection does not exist (DNE). 2. **Concave Upward**: - The function is concave upward for \( (0, 2\pi) \). 3. **Concave Downward**: - The function is concave downward for \( (0, 0) \) (not applicable since it's a single point). ### Final Answers - Point of Inflection: \( (x, y) = \text{DNE} \) - Concave Upward: \( (0, 2\pi) \) - Concave Downward: \( \text{DNE} \) (since it only changes at a single point).

To find points of inflection for the function \( f(x) = 10 \csc \left(\frac{3x}{2}\right) \), we first need to compute the second derivative and look for changes in concavity. Given that \( \csc(x) \) has discontinuities, make sure to consider those locations where the function may not exist. Once analyzed, we find that there are no valid points of inflection within the given interval \( (0, 2\pi) \). While the inflection points may not exist in this case, understanding concavity can help us evaluate where a function is bending upwards or downwards. Concave upward sections imply that the function's second derivative is positive, while concave downward sections indicate a negative second derivative. Thus, analyzing these intervals enriches your understanding of function behaviors even without an inflection point.
