The graphs of \(y=\mathrm{f}'\left( x \right)\) and \(y=\left| \mathrm{f}\left( x \right) \right|\) are shown below.

  1. State the nature of all stationary points of the graph of \(y=\mathrm{f}\left( x \right)\).[2]
  2. State the range of values of \(x\) where
    1. \(\operatorname{f}\) is decreasing,[2]
    2. \(\mathrm{f}\) is concave upwards.[1]
  3. Sketch the graph of \(y=\mathrm{f}\left( x \right)\) indicating clearly the asymptotes, coordinates of the stationary points and the intersections with the axes.[3]
