Understanding Monotonic Functions and the First Derivative Test

This guide covers the concepts of monotonic functions, specifically increasing and decreasing intervals, and the application of the First Derivative Test for determining local extrema. It discusses the implications of a function being continuous and differentiable, and outlines conditions under which a function is monotonic on an interval. The guide provides methods to identify critical points, evaluate intervals of increase and decrease, and apply the First Derivative Test to find local maxima and minima. This information is crucial for understanding the behavior of functions in calculus.
