If `f^(11)(x)lt0(gt0)` on an interval (a,b) then the curve y=f(x) on this interval is convex (concave) i.e it is below (above) any of its tangent lines If `f^(11)(x_(0))=0` or does not exist and the second derivative changes sign when passing through the point `x_(0)` then the point `(x_(0),f(x))` is the = point of inflection of the curve y=f(x)
If `y=x^(4)+x^(3)-18x^(2)+24x-12` then

A

`(-2,-24)` is a point of inflection
