21. Using the figure below, complete the chart by indicating whether each value is positive (+), negative (-), or
zero (0) at the indicated points. For these problems, if the point appears to be a max or min, assume it is. If it
appears to be a point of inflection, assume it is.

b. There is no value of 𝑥 in the open interval 0, 3 at which 𝑔 𝑥 . Explain why this does not
violate the Mean Value Theorem.
c. Find all values 𝑥 in the open interval 4, 5 at which the graph of 𝑓 has a point of inflection. Explain
your reasoning.
d. At what value of 𝑥 does 𝑓 attain its absolute minimum on the closed interval 4, 5 ? Give a reason for
your answer.
