Graphing with Calculus

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

In a problem where you are not given the original function, but rather only three known points on the graph and a few additional pieces of information about when the first and second derivatives are positive or negative, Sal shows how you can draw an approximate graph of the original function. He also does a quick explanation which proves that a quadratic function has no inflection point.
