  1. Calculate Average Rate of Change: To determine the concavity of the graph of function ff, we need to look at the average rate of change between consecutive xx-values and see if it is increasing or decreasing. The average rate of change is the change in f(x)f(x) divided by the change in xx, which is equivalent to the slope between two points on the graph of ff.
  2. Interval x=5x = 5 to x=6x = 6: First, let's calculate the average rate of change between x=5x = 5 and x=6x = 6.\newlineAverage rate of change = f(6)f(5)65=27(17)1=10\frac{f(6) - f(5)}{6 - 5} = \frac{-27 - (-17)}{1} = -10.
  3. Interval x=6x = 6 to x=7x = 7: Next, calculate the average rate of change between x=6x = 6 and x=7x = 7.\newlineAverage rate of change = f(7)f(6)76=(39(27))1=12\frac{f(7) - f(6)}{7 - 6} = \frac{(-39 - (-27))}{1} = -12.
  4. Interval x=7x = 7 to x=8x = 8: Now, calculate the average rate of change between x=7x = 7 and x=8x = 8.\newlineAverage rate of change = f(8)f(7)87=(53(39))1=14\frac{f(8) - f(7)}{8 - 7} = \frac{(-53 - (-39))}{1} = -14.
  5. Interval x=8x = 8 to x=9x = 9: Continue this process for the interval between x=8x = 8 and x=9x = 9.\newlineAverage rate of change = f(9)f(8)98=69(53)1=16\frac{f(9) - f(8)}{9 - 8} = \frac{-69 - (-53)}{1} = -16.
  6. Interval x=9x = 9 to x=10x = 10: Finally, calculate the average rate of change between x=9x = 9 and x=10x = 10.\newlineAverage rate of change = f(10)f(9)109=87(69)1=18\frac{f(10) - f(9)}{10 - 9} = \frac{-87 - (-69)}{1} = -18.
  7. Observation of Concavity: We observe that the average rate of change is decreasing as xx increases (from 10-10 to 12-12 to 14-14 to 16-16 to 18-18). This indicates that the graph of ff is becoming steeper as xx increases, which is characteristic of a graph that is concave down.
