about absolute maxima and minima..>O<

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Did you find the critical points?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

NO...?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do i have to use second derivative?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You use the first derivative to find critical points.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can use the second derivative, but don't need to.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okkayyy mmm...so when should i use the second derivative?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, come back with the first and second derivative and I'll tell you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okayy ill @ u when im finished:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

derivation of c(t) is 60t-240

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@wio

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then what should i do?:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wow, did you use the definition of the derivative?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay now solve for \(t\): \[ 60t-240 =0 \]to get critical points.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It just took you a while to get the derivative....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol yeah i just start this lesson and kind of slow:D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, now plug in \(4, 0,\) and \(8\) into \(C(t)\) to find the values.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The maximum/minimum values will be at the critical points and end points.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont get it why 8?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because \(0\leq t\leq 8\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So 0 and 8 are endpoints and must be checked.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeahhhh right ~what should i do after it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is \(C(0), C(4), C(8)\) ? The smallest is the minimum, the highest is the maximum. It shouldn't be hard to compare 3 numbers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i see

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i need some time ill @ u lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@wio c(0)=500 c(4)=20 c(8)=500..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats weird=_=

OpenStudy (anonymous):

mmm..we can get the first ques now right???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

after 4 days????(⊙⊙?)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what the minimum concentration?what does that mean?=A=

OpenStudy (anonymous):

IM SOOO sorry @wio

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@wio ^ω^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ummm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So after 4 days the minimum concentration is 20...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

↖(^ω^)↗i seeeee thanks soooooooo much

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im sorrry i dont get english much lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is your language?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

persian and my mother speaks english but i grew up in china=A= KInd of complicated lol
