We consider the function $f$ defined on the interval $] 0 ; + \infty [$ by $$f ( x ) = \frac { \mathrm { e } ^ { \sqrt { x } } } { 2 \sqrt { x } }$$ and we call $\mathscr { C } _ { f }$ its representative curve in an orthonormal coordinate system.

  5. We admit that the function $f$ is twice differentiable on the interval $] 0 ; + \infty [$ and that: $$f ^ { \prime \prime } ( x ) = \frac { \mathrm { e } ^ { \sqrt { x } } ( x - 3 \sqrt { x } + 3 ) } { 8 x ^ { 2 } \sqrt { x } } .$$ a.
