The points at which the function is not precisely defined: x1=0
The points of intersection with the X-axis coordinate
Graph of the function intersects the axis X at f = 0 so we need to solve the equation: ∣x∣x(x−1)2=0 Solve this equation The points of intersection with the axis X:
The points of intersection with the Y axis coordinate
The graph crosses Y axis when x equals 0: substitute x = 0 to (x*(sqrt(x - 1))^2)/|x|. ∣0∣0(−1)2 The result: f(0)=NaN - the solutions of the equation d'not exist
Extrema of the function
In order to find the extrema, we need to solve the equation dxdf(x)=0 (the derivative equals zero), and the roots of this equation are the extrema of this function: dxdf(x)= the first derivative ∣x∣x+(x−1)2−x(x−1)sign(x)=0 Solve this equation Solutions are not found, function may have no extrema
Inflection points
Let's find the inflection points, we'll need to solve the equation for this dx2d2f(x)=0 (the second derivative equals zero), the roots of this equation will be the inflection points for the specified function graph: dx2d2f(x)= the second derivative 2∣x∣1−x(x−1)(δ(x)−xsign(x))−x2(2x−1)sign(x)=0 Solve this equation Solutions are not found, maybe, the function has no inflections
Vertical asymptotes
Have: x1=0
Horizontal asymptotes
Let’s find horizontal asymptotes with help of the limits of this function at x->+oo and x->-oo x→−∞lim(∣x∣x(x−1)2)=∞ Let's take the limit so, horizontal asymptote on the left doesn’t exist x→∞lim(∣x∣x(x−1)2)=∞ Let's take the limit so, horizontal asymptote on the right doesn’t exist
Inclined asymptotes
Inclined asymptote can be found by calculating the limit of (x*(sqrt(x - 1))^2)/|x|, divided by x at x->+oo and x ->-oo x→−∞lim(∣x∣x−1)=−1 Let's take the limit so, inclined asymptote equation on the left: y=−x x→∞lim(∣x∣x−1)=1 Let's take the limit so, inclined asymptote equation on the right: y=x
Even and odd functions
Let's check, whether the function even or odd by using relations f = f(-x) и f = -f(-x). So, check: ∣x∣x(x−1)2=−∣x∣x(−x−1) - No ∣x∣x(x−1)2=∣x∣x(−x−1) - No so, the function not is neither even, nor odd
