From My understanding points of inflection are the points where a curve changes direction ( concave up to concave down, concave down to concave up). This only applies to graphs that curve so functions like the Zeus* function would not have a point of inflection. The other functions like f(x)= X is also would not have a point of inflection. Other functions naturally have points of inflections like the polynomial cubic functions.

*reference to the in class project assignment with the parent functions.

  1. Nice work Asher: Well-phrased and I love the "god-metaphor". There are philosophers today who make an argument for God on similar grounds. If interested, check the work of Alister McGrath (and his debate with Richard Dawkins!)
