Extreme Value Theorem

EVT

If a function 𝑓 is continuous over the interval [𝑎, 𝑏], then 𝑓 has at least one minimum value and at least one maximum value on [𝑎, 𝑏].

Absolute extrema use both critical points and end points x=a & x=b to find the absolute max and min by substituting into f(x)

​Absolute Extrema

f'(x) =0 and/or f'(x) DNE

Recall the 3 way something is
non differentiable.

Multiple Choice

Identify the critical points of the following function:
g(x)=2x³-3x²

Multiple Choice

When f'(x) changes from negative to positive, there is(are) ...

• a maximum.
• a minimum.

Are found ​by analyzing your critical value and using a sign chart. This is called the 1st derivative test.

OR

Observing the graph of f(x) as seen here

Relative/Local Extrema

Means this point is a P.O.I aka point of inflection.

f'(x) =0 with no sign change

Find f'(x)=0 for critical points
f is Increasing when f'(x)>0 , Decreasing when f'(x)<0, Critical when f'(x)=0

Uses

1st derivate test

f''(x) =0 and has a sign change is where a point of inflection occurs.

What it means

f''(x) =0 and use a sign chart, similar to 1st derivative test

​
f''(x)>0
f''(x)<0
