can someon e explain me how to determine maximum and minimum point of critical points?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

is this for calculus?

OpenStudy (rabya!):

yes

OpenStudy (amistre64):

then you want to determine when the slope of a curve is equal to 0, or undefined

OpenStudy (amistre64):

what process allows us to determine the slope of a curve at a given point?

OpenStudy (rabya!):

the question is determine the location of all critical p;oints and determine their nature i.e maxima and minima

OpenStudy (amistre64):

will need you to define the function, or post the graph

OpenStudy (rabya!):

just function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i recommend watching this video if you haven't already it's really helpful if you need extra help https://www.khanacademy.org/math/differential-calculus/derivative_applications/critical_points_graphing/v/minima-maxima-and-critical-points

OpenStudy (rabya!):

ok sarah , do u knw about this topic?

OpenStudy (rabya!):

our teacher told us to first find derivative the double derivative

OpenStudy (rabya!):

then put f derivative = 0

OpenStudy (rabya!):

the other steps I dont understand !
