AI Generated Solution

To find the coordinates of the point of inflection of the curve given by the function \( f(x) = e^{-x^2} \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Find the first derivative \( f'(x) \) Using the chain rule, we differentiate \( f(x) \): \[ f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(e^{-x^2}) = e^{-x^2} \cdot (-2x) = -2x e^{-x^2} \] ...
