@hartnn can you give me a hand?

hartnn (hartnn):

did u differentiate f(x) ? what u got ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya 3-11/x sorry god disconnected from the internet

hartnn (hartnn):

yes, now equate that to 0 and solve for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so x=11/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and x=0

hartnn (hartnn):

yes, put that back in f(x) to get the critical value.

hartnn (hartnn):

x=0 is incorrect.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

11-11 log(11)

hartnn (hartnn):

11-11 log(11) is one of the critical point .
