* Reading Outline, Sec4.1 * ---------------------------------------- * Vocabulary/Definitions * - If f'>0, then f is\dots - If f'<0, then f is\dots - If f''>0, then f is\dots - If f''<0, then f is\dots - Local minimum or maximum - Critical point (what are the two meanings?) - First-derivative test for local maxima and minima - Second-derivative test for local maxima and minima - Inflection point - What is true of f' when f has an inflection point? * Understand * 1. Find all critical points of f(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 + 9x - 21. 2. Use the first-derivative test to determine if these are maxima or minima. 3. Use the second-derivative test to confirm your results from (2). 4. Find where the derivative of f(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 + 9x - 21 has a local maximum or minimum.
