16 Νοε 2022 · In this section we give the definition of critical points. Critical points will show up in most of the sections in this chapter, so it will be important to understand them and how to find them. We will work a number of examples illustrating how to find them for a wide variety of functions.

f00(a) < 0 or f00(a) > 0 then we have a local maximum or minimum, respectively, and if f00(a) = 0 then we know nothing. Di erent cases of f00(a) = 0 will be explored later. Example 1: Find all local extrema of f(x) = x3 3x2 9x+ 5. In Example 1 on the previous page we found f0(x) = 3x2 6x 9 and that the critical points occur at ( 1;10) and (3; 22).
applications: using derivatives to find maxima and minima of functions. On the worksheet, we saw how to solve an example of this type of problem: we found the highest point on the graph of y= f(x) = x 2 −x 4 .
Problem 11.1: Find all critical points for the following functions. If there are in nitely many, indicate their structure. For f(x) = cos(x) for example, the critical points can be written as ˇ=2 + kˇ, where kis an integer. a) f(x) = x6 3x2. b) f(x) = 4sin(ˇx) + 3 c) f(x) = exp( x2)x2. d) f(x) = sin(cos(ˇx))
For exercises 1-6, for the given functions and region: Find the partial derivatives of the original function. Find any critical points in the region. Produce a small graph around any critical point. Determine if the critical points are maxima, minima, or saddle points.
The critical x-values are obtained by solving f0(x) = 0. This leads to 3x2 +6x 36 = 0 )x= 1+ p 13. The extreme values are obtained by comparing: f(0) = 4 f( 1+ p 13) = 51:74 f(4) = 28 Therefore the maximum of fis 4 and the minimum is 51:74. 17.Find the extreme values of the function f(x) = x x2 +1 on the interval [ 3;3]. From f0(x) = 1 x2 1+x2
Lecture 13: extrema and critical points. Last time, we saw some first applications of differentiation, including a new concept, related rates. This time we’ll introduce another new concept to open up a whole set of applications: using derivatives to find maxima and minima of functions.
