   The concavity of the graph of a function refers to the curvature of the graph over an interval; this curvature is described as being concave up or concave down. Generally, a concave up curve has a shape resembling "∪" and a concave down curve has a shape resembling "∩" as shown in the figure below. Concave up.

   Dec 21, 2020 · In general, concavity can change only where either the second derivative is 0, where there is a vertical asymptote, or (rare in practice) where the second derivative is undefined. But concavity doesn't \emph{have} to change at these places.

   Dec 21, 2020 · Describe the concavity of \( f(x)=x^3-x\). Solution. The first dervative is \( f'(x)=3x^2-1\) and the second is \(f''(x)=6x\). Since \(f''(0)=0\), there is potentially an inflection point at zero.

   How do you find the concavity of a function?

   • At these points, the sign of f" (x) may change from negative to positive or vice versa; if it changes, the point is an inflection point and the concavity of f (x) changes; if it does not change, then the concavity stays the same. Given these facts, we can now put everything together and use the second derivative of a function to find its concavity.

   What does a concave up curve look like?

   • Generally, a concave up curve has a shape resembling "∪" and a concave down curve has a shape resembling "∩" as shown in the figure below. There are a number of ways to determine the concavity of a function. If given a graph of f (x) or f' (x), determining concavity is relatively simple.

   Can a second derivative determine concavity without a graph?

   • Fortunately, the second derivative can be used to determine the concavity of a function without a graph or the need to check every single x-value.

   Is the graph of (F) concave down on (I)?

   • The graph of \ (f\) is concave down on \ (I\) if \ (f'\) is decreasing. If \ (f'\) is constant then the graph of \ (f\) is said to have no concavity. Note: We often state that "\ (f\) is concave up" instead of "the graph of \ (f\) is concave up" for simplicity. The graph of a function \ (f\) is concave up when \ (f'\) is increasing.

   What happens if a function is increasing and concave up?

   • If the function is increasing and concave up, then the rate of increase is increasing. The function is increasing at a faster and faster rate. Now consider a function which is concave down. We essentially repeat the above paragraphs with slight variation. The graph of a function \ (f\) is concave down when \ (f'\) is decreasing.
