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 …

Question

Chapter 15.2A, Problem 8GCE

To determine

To find out slope of a polynomial curve at a maximum or minimum point.

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 8GCE

Taking the derivative of that function.

Explanation of Solution

The slope of a polynomial curve will be defined by the derivative of that function at a maximum or minimum point.

Suppose the function is y=2x+3

So, the slope of the function is dydx=2

The maxima and minima of a polynomial curve will be found using the double differentiation of the function.
