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