STEP 1

1. We are analyzing the quadratic function f(x)=x2+2x+1 f(x) = x^2 + 2x + 1 .
2. We need to determine the concavity, intercepts, graph, domain, range, intervals of increase/decrease, and where the function is positive or negative.

STEP 2

1. Determine the concavity of the graph.
2. Find the y y -intercept and x x -intercepts.
3. Use the information to graph the function.
4. Determine the domain and range of the function.
5. Identify intervals where the function is increasing or decreasing.
6. Determine where f(x)>0 f(x) > 0 and f(x)<0 f(x) < 0 .

STEP 3

The quadratic function f(x)=x2+2x+1 f(x) = x^2 + 2x + 1 has a positive leading coefficient (1), indicating that the graph is concave up.

STEP 4

To find the y y -intercept, set x=0 x = 0 : f(0)=02+2×0+1=1 f(0) = 0^2 + 2 \times 0 + 1 = 1 Thus, the y y -intercept is (0,1) (0, 1) .
To find the x x -intercepts, set f(x)=0 f(x) = 0 : x2+2x+1=0 x^2 + 2x + 1 = 0 Factor the quadratic: (x+1)2=0 (x+1)^2 = 0 So, x=1 x = -1 . Thus, the x x -intercept is (1,0) (-1, 0) .

STEP 5

Use the intercepts and concavity to sketch the graph. The vertex is at (1,0) (-1, 0) and the parabola opens upwards.

STEP 6

The domain of any quadratic function is all real numbers: (,) (-\infty, \infty)
The range, since the parabola opens upwards and the vertex is at y=0 y = 0 , is: [0,) [0, \infty)

STEP 7

The function is decreasing on the interval (,1) (-\infty, -1) and increasing on the interval (1,) (-1, \infty) .

STEP 8

Since the vertex is at (1,0) (-1, 0) and the parabola opens upwards, f(x)>0 f(x) > 0 on (,1)(1,) (-\infty, -1) \cup (-1, \infty) and f(x) f(x) is never negative.
The function is concave up, the y y -intercept is (0,1) (0, 1) , the x x -intercept is (1,0) (-1, 0) , the domain is (,) (-\infty, \infty) , the range is [0,) [0, \infty) , it is increasing on (1,) (-1, \infty) , decreasing on (,1) (-\infty, -1) , and f(x)>0 f(x) > 0 on (,1)(1,) (-\infty, -1) \cup (-1, \infty) .
