We make the following definitions. The graph of a function is concave up if it bends upward as we move left to right; the graph is concave down if it bends downward. ) A line is neither concave up nor concave down. 30, estimate the intervals over which: (a) The function is increasing; decreasing. (b) The graph is concave up; concave down. 30 Solution (a) The graph suggests that the function is increasing for x < 2 and for x > 6. It appears to be decreasing for 2 < x < 6. (b) The graph is concave down on the left and concave up on the right.
