Transcribed Image Text:**Transcription:**
17) Draw the graph of a function \( K(m) \), such that
- \( \int_{-3}^{4} K(m) \, dm < 0 \), and
- \( \int_{-2}^{4} K(m) \, dm > 0 \)
**Explanation of the Problem:**
This problem asks you to sketch a graph of a function \( K(m) \) that satisfies two conditions based on definite integrals:
1. The integral of \( K(m) \) from \(-3\) to \(4\) is negative, meaning the net area under the curve \( K(m) \) between these points is below the x-axis.
2. The integral of \( K(m) \) from \(-2\) to \(4\) is positive, meaning the net area under the curve \( K(m) \) between these points is above the x-axis.
To satisfy these conditions, you will need to design the function \( K(m) \) in such a way that the area below the x-axis between \(-3\) and \(-2\) is large and negative enough to make the entire integral over \(-3\) to \(4\) negative, while ensuring the area from \(-2\) to \(4\) is predominantly above the x-axis to result in a positive integral. Consider using piecewise functions or strategically placing zeros or changes in direction to achieve this.
