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 ter…
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 …
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 …

After a great deal of experimentation, two college senior physics majors determined that when a bottle of French champagne is shaken several times, held upright, and uncorked, its cork travels according to the function below, where s is its height (in feet) above the ground t seconds after being released. s(t)=-16t² + 30t+3 a. How high will it go? b. How long is it in the air?
+6x²+135x+1) (0≤x≤10). a) Find the number of units The total profit P(x) (in thousands of dollars) from a sale of x thousand units of a new product is given by P(x) = In (-x²+6x² + 135x+ that should be sold in order to maximize the total profit. b) What is the maximum profit?
The fox population in a certain region has an annual growth rate of 8 percent per year. It is estimated that the population in the year 2000 was 22600. (a) Find a function that models the population t years after 2000 (t = 0 for 2000). Your answer is P(t) = (b) Use the function from part (a) to estimate the fox population in the year 2008. Your answer is (the answer should be an integer)
