1
New cards

f(x) is increasing

fโ€™(x) is positive, fโ€™(x)>0

2
New cards

f(x) is decreasing

fโ€™(x) is negative, fโ€™(x)<0

3
New cards

f(x) is at a critical value

if f is defined, fโ€™=0 or DNE

4
New cards

f(x) is at a relative max

fโ€™ changes from positive to negative at a critical value

fโ€™โ€™(C.V.)<0, if fโ€™ exists and is differentiable

5
New cards

f(x) is at a relative min

fโ€™ changes from negative to positive at a critical value

fโ€™โ€™(C.V.)>0, if fโ€™ exists and is differentiable

6
New cards

f(x) is concave up

fโ€™(x) is increasing

fโ€™โ€™(x) is positive, fโ€™โ€™(x)>0

7
New cards

f(x) is concave down

fโ€™(x) is decreasing

fโ€™โ€™(x) is negative, fโ€™โ€™(x)<0

8
New cards

f(x) is at a point of inflection

fโ€™(x) is at either a relative minimum or maximum

fโ€™โ€™(x)=0 or DNE and changes sign
