1. Section 2.5 Critical Numbers – Relative Maximum and Minimum Points

2. If f ‘ (a) > 0 The graph of f(x) is INCREASING at x = a x = a

3. If f ‘ (a) < 0 The graph of f(x) is DECREASING at x = a x = a

4. This is the graph of g(x) This is the graph of f(x) If f ‘ (a) = 0, a maximum or minimum MAY exist.

5. This is the graph of g ‘ (x) This is the graph of f ‘ (x)

6. A change from increasing to decreasing indicates a maximum

7. A change from decreasing to increasing indicates a minimum

8. If f ‘ (x) > 0 on an interval (a, b), f is increasing on (a, b). If f ‘ (x) < 0 on an interval (a, b), f is decreasing on (a, b). If f ‘ (c) = 0 or f ‘ (c) does not exist, c is a critical number If f ‘ (c) = 0, a relative maximum will exist IF f ‘ (x) changes from positive to negative. If f ‘ (c) = 0, a relative minimum will exist IF f ‘ (x) changes from negative to positive. A RELATIVE max/min is a high/low point around the area. An ABSOLUTE max/min is THE high/low point on an interval. FACTS ABOUT f ‘ (x) = 0
