Advanced Mathematics for Scientists: Coursework 1311 Assignment

This document provides a comprehensive solution to an advanced mathematics assignment, addressing several key concepts. The solution begins by determining critical points for a given function, classifying them as maxima, minima, or saddle points using partial derivatives. It then explores v...Read More

The x-axis represent the x values from −8 ≤ x ≤ 8 and the y axis represent the corresponding
f ( x )
f ( x ) = { 0−2< x< 0
2− x 0< x <2
Since it has a period of 4
f ( x ) = { 0−6< x ←4
2− x−4 < x←2
f ( x )= { 0−10<x ←8
2− x−8< x ←6
f ( x ) = { 0 2< x <4
2− x 4 < x <6
f ( x )= { 0 6< x <8
2− x 8< x <10
But since it is given that we can plot the graph between −8 ≤ x ≤ 8
So, the graph looks like,
