First derivative:

1. is positive is negative is zero is positive is negative is zero First derivative: Curve is rising. Curve is falling. Possible local maximum or minimum. Second derivative: Curve is concave up. Curve is concave down. Possible inflection point (where concavity changes).

2. There are roots at and . Possible extreme at . Set Example: Graph We can use a chart to organize our thoughts. First derivative test: negative positive positive

3. There are roots at and . Possible extreme at . Set maximum at minimum at Example: Graph First derivative test:

4. There is a local maximum at (0,4) because for all x in and for all x in (0,2) . There is a local minimum at (2,0) because for all x in (0,2) and for all x in . Example: Graph First derivative test:

5. There are roots at and . Possible extreme at . Because the second derivative at x =0 is negative, the graph is concave down and therefore (0,4) is a local maximum. Because the second derivative at x =2 is positive, the graph is concave up and therefore (2,0) is a local minimum. Example: Graph Or you could use the second derivative test:

6. Possible inflection point at . There is an inflection point at x =1 because the second derivative changes from negative to positive. inflection point at Example: Graph We then look for inflection points by setting the second derivative equal to zero. negative positive
