- A functionfis continuous and twice
differentiable for all values ofx. The figure
above shows the graph off′, the derivative of
functionfon the closed interval [−4, 2]. The
graph off′has horizontal tangents atx=− 1
andx= 1 .5. The areas of regionsA,B, andC
are 20, 10, and 6, respectively, andf(2)=3.
