Consider the function $f(x) = 2x^{6}-3x^{4}$.

The x-intercepts occur at $x=$
NOTE: If there are more than one, separate your answers by a comma.

There a y-intercept at $y =$

To analyze the shape of the graph of $f$ it helps to separate the domain into disjoint open intervals $$(-\infty,A), (A,B), (B,C), (C,D), (D,E), \text{ and }(E,\infty)$$ whose endpoints $$A< B<C<D<E$$ are critical points of $f$ or $f'$. Inside each interval there are no critical points of $f$ or $f'$, so $f'$ and $f''$ cannot change sign inside the interval.

$A =$
$B =$
$C =$
$D =$
$E =$

For each of the intervals listed below, select the curve best representing the shape of the graph of $f$ on that interval.

On ($-\infty,A$): ? 1 2 3 4
On ($A,B$): ? 1 2 3 4
On ($B,C$): ? 1 2 3 4
On ($C,D$): ? 1 2 3 4
On ($D,E$): ? 1 2 3 4
On ($E,\infty$): ? 1 2 3 4
