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 …

Assume that a car drove for two hours and traversed 120 miles. The average rate of change is clearly 60 miles per hour. Was it possible for the car to have gone over 60 mph at some point in the interval? Explain how. Was it possible for the car to have stayed under 60 mph the whole time? Explain how. Was it possible for the car never to have gone exactly 60 mph?Explain how. The truth of this statement is an example of the Mean Value Theorem from Calculus
Let a, b > 0. Show that the geometric mean ,Jab is not larger than the arithmetic mean (a+ b)/2. Hint: Consider (a 1/2 - b 1/2)2.
