The inflection points are given when the second derivative is equaled to zero, because the second derivative indicates the change in concavity of the function.
Developing:
Equaling the second derivative to zero:
Substituting these values found in the second derivative there in the original function, we'll get the inflection points.
Thus, the inflection points are
