Concave Upward and Concave Downward
A function f is concave upward on an open interval (a, b) iff ′′(x) > 0 for every x in (a, b).
A function f is concave downward on (a, b) if f ′′(x) < 0 for everyx in (a, b).

Second Derivative Test
Let c be a critical number of f .
If f ′′(c) > 0, then f has a relative minumum at c .
If f ′′(c) < 0, then f has a relative maximum at c .
If f ′′(c) = 0, then the Second Derivative Test is inconclusive.
