The absolute maximum of f on interval I means:
A function f has a local minimum at c if:
According to the Second Derivative Test, if f'(c) = 0 and f''(c) < 0, then:
According to the Second Derivative Test, if f'(c) = 0 and f''(c) > 0, then:
Sample Questions
If f'(c) = 0 and f''(c) = 0, the Second Derivative Test:
Show answer
Is inconclusive
When f''(c) = 0, the Second Derivative Test gives no information. Use the First Derivative Test instead.
The First Derivative Test says: if f' changes from negative to positive at c, then:
Show answer
f has a local minimum at c
Negative to positive sign change: function was decreasing then increasing — classic valley (minimum).
Which of the following is a necessary condition for a local maximum at interior point c?
Show answer
f'(c) = 0
Fermat's Theorem: if f has a local extremum at interior c and is differentiable, then f'(c) = 0. This is necessary but NOT sufficient.
A point c where f'(c) = 0 is always a local maximum or minimum.
Show answer
False
False. f(x) = x³ has f'(0) = 0 but x=0 is a point of inflection — neither max nor min.
