14. Use 1 st derivative to locate and identify extreme values(stationary values) of a continuous function from its derivative Definition: Absolute Maximum and Absolute Minimum Let f be a function with domain D.

16. Let f be a function defined on an interval I and let x 1 and x 2 be any two points in I 1)If f (x 1 )< f (x 2 ) whenever x 1 < x 2, then f is said to be increasing on I 2)If f (x 1 )> f (x 2 ) whenever x 1 < x 2, then f is said to be decreasing on I INCREASING & DECREASING

17. Suppose that f is continuous on [a,b] and differentiable on (a,b). 1)If f’(x)>0 at each point, then f is said to be increasing on [a,b] 2)If f’(x)<0 at each point, then f is said to be decreasing on [a,b] 1 st DERIVATIVE TEST
