A particular type of cell doubles in number every hour. Which function can be used to find the number of cells present at the end of h hours if there are initially 8 of these cells? REMEMBER – Anything to the zero power is one and anything to the power of one is that thing. So when time (x) is 0 it makes the equation equal the initial number. On=8(2)" On=8()" On=8+(2)" On= 8+
Minimization
In mathematics, traditional optimization problems are typically expressed in terms of minimization. When we talk about minimizing or maximizing a function, we refer to the maximum and minimum possible values of that function. This can be expressed in terms of global or local range. The definition of minimization in the thesaurus is the process of reducing something to a small amount, value, or position. Minimization (noun) is an instance of belittling or disparagement.
Maxima and Minima
The extreme points of a function are the maximum and the minimum points of the function. A maximum is attained when the function takes the maximum value and a minimum is attained when the function takes the minimum value.
Derivatives
A derivative means a change. Geometrically it can be represented as a line with some steepness. Imagine climbing a mountain which is very steep and 500 meters high. Is it easier to climb? Definitely not! Suppose walking on the road for 500 meters. Which one would be easier? Walking on the road would be much easier than climbing a mountain.
Concavity
In calculus, concavity is a descriptor of mathematics that tells about the shape of the graph. It is the parameter that helps to estimate the maximum and minimum value of any of the functions and the concave nature using the graphical method. We use the first derivative test and second derivative test to understand the concave behavior of the function.

![A toy is made up of cylindrical rings stacked on a base, as shown in the diagram. The diameter of Ring 1 is 90% of the diameter of the base. For Ring 2
through Ring 7, the diameter of each ring is 90% of the diameter of the ring directly below it.
Base
The diameter of the base is 6 inches, Which function can be used to find the diameter in inches of Ring r, where 1 <r < 7?
O d(r) = 0.9(6)"
Od(r) = 6(0.9)"
O d(r) = 0.9 (r- 6)
O d(r) = 6 (r - 0.9)
