4.2 Critical Points, Relative Maxima, and Relative Minima, pp. 178180
1. Finding the critical points means determining the points on the graph of the function for which the derivative of the function at the x-coordinate is 0. 2. a. Take the derivative of the function. Set the derivative equal to 0. Solve for x. Evaluate the original function for the values of x. The ( x, y ) pairs are the critical points. b. y 5 x 3 2 6x 2 dy 5 3x 2 2 12x dx 5 3x ( x 2 4) dy Let 5 0. dx 3x ( x 2 4) 5 0 x 5 0, 4 The critical points are (0, 0) and (4, 2 32).

Since x1 , x2, both functions are increasing: f ( x2 ) . f ( x1 ) (1) g ( x2 ) . g ( x1 ) (2) yu 5 f ( x ) ? g ( x ). (1) 3 (2) results in f ( x2 ) ? g ( x2 ) . f ( x1 )g ( x1 ). The function yu or f ( x ) ? g ( x ) is strictly increasing.

12. a. Since f is defined for all values of x, f r and f s are also defined for all values of x. f has a horizontal asymptote at y 5 0. So f r and f s will have horizontal asymptotes there. f has a local maximum at (0, 1) so f r will be 0 when x 5 0. f has a point of inflection at ( 2 0.7, 0.6) and (0.7, 0.6), so f s will be 0 at x 5 6 0.7. At x 5 0.7, f changes from concave up to concave down, so the sign of f s changes from positive to negative. At x 5 0.7, f changes from concave down to concave up, so the sign of f s changes from negative to positive there. f is increasing for x , 0, so f r will be positive. f is decreasing for x . 0, so f r will be negative. The graph of f is concave up for x , 2 0.7 and x . 0.7, so f s is positive for x , 2 0.7 and x . 0.7. The graph of f is concave down for 2 0.7 , x , 0.7, so f s is negative for 2 0.7 , x , 0.7. Also, since f s is 0 at x 5 6 0.7, the graph of f r will have a local minimum or local maximum at these points. Since the sign of f s changes from negative to positive at x 5 0.7, it must be a local minimum point. Since the sign of f s changes from positive to negative at x 5 2 0.7, it must be a local maximum point.

b. Since f is defined for all values of x, f r and f s are also defined for all values of x. f has a horizontal asymptote at y 5 0 so f r and f s will have a horizontal asymptote there. f has a local maximum at (1, 3.5) so f r will be 0 when x 5 1. f has a local minimum at ( 2 1, 2 3.5) so f r will be 0 when x 5 2 1. f has a point of inflection at ( 2 1.7, 2 3), (1.7, 3) and (90, 0) so f s will be 0 at x 5 6 1.7 and x 5 0. At x 5 0, f changes from concave up to concave down, so the sign of f s changes from positive to negative. At x 5 2 1.7, f changes from concave down to concave up, so the sign of f s changes from negative to positive. At x 5 1.7, f changes from concave down to concave up, so the sign of f s changes from negative to positive. f is decreasing for x , 2 1 and x . 1, so f r will be negative. The graph of f is concave up for 2 1.7 , x , 0 and x . 1.7, so f s is positive for 2 1.7 , x , 0 and x . 1.7. The graph of f is concave down for x , 2 1.7 and 0 , x , 1.7, so f s is negative for x , 2 1.7 and 0 , x , 1.7. Also, since f s is 0 when x 5 0 and x 5 6 1.7, the graph of f r will have a local maximum or minimum at these points. Since the sign of f s changes from negative to positive at x 5 2 1.7, f r has a local minimum at x 5 2 1.7. Since the sign of f s changes from positive to negative at x 5 0, it must be a local maximum point. Since the sign of f s changes from negative to positive at x 5 1.7, it must be a local minimum point.

When x is large and negative, this difference is negative, which means that the curve approaches the asymptote from below. b.

The x-intercept cannot be easily obtained algebraically. Since the polynomial function has a local maximum when x 5 2, it must have an x-intercept prior to this x-value. Since f (0) 5 2 10 and f (1) 5 13, an estimate for the x-intercept is about 0.3.

12. a. Since f is defined for all values of x, f r and f s are also defined for all values of x. f has a horizontal asymptote at y 5 0. So f r and f s will have horizontal asymptotes there. f has a local maximum at (0, 1) so f r will be 0 when x 5 0. f has a point of inflection at ( 2 0.7, 0.6) and (0.7, 0.6), so f s will be 0 at x 5 6 0.7. At x 5 0.7, f changes from concave up to concave down, so the sign of f s changes from positive to negative. At x 5 0.7, f changes from concave down to concave up, so the sign of f s changes from negative to positive there. f is increasing for x , 0, so f r will be positive. f is decreasing for x . 0, so f r will be negative. The graph of f is concave up for x , 2 0.7 and x . 0.7, so f s is positive for x , 2 0.7 and x . 0.7. The graph of f is concave down for 2 0.7 , x , 0.7, so f s is negative for 2 0.7 , x , 0.7. Also, since f s is 0 at x 5 6 0.7, the graph of f r will have a local minimum or local maximum at these points. Since the sign of f s changes from negative to positive at x 5 0.7, it must be a local minimum point. Since the sign of f s changes from positive to negative at x 5 2 0.7, it must be a local maximum point.

b. Since f is defined for all values of x, f r and f s are also defined for all values of x. f has a horizontal asymptote at y 5 0 so f r and f s will have a horizontal asymptote there. f has a local maximum at (1, 3.5) so f r will be 0 when x 5 1. f has a local minimum at ( 2 1, 2 3.5) so f r will be 0 when x 5 2 1. f has a point of inflection at ( 2 1.7, 2 3), (1.7, 3) and (90, 0) so f s will be 0 at x 5 6 1.7 and x 5 0. At x 5 0, f changes from concave up to concave down, so the sign of f s changes from positive to negative. At x 5 2 1.7, f changes from concave down to concave up, so the sign of f s changes from negative to positive. At x 5 1.7, f changes from concave down to concave up, so the sign of f s changes from negative to positive. f is decreasing for x , 2 1 and x . 1, so f r will be negative. The graph of f is concave up for 2 1.7 , x , 0 and x . 1.7, so f s is positive for 2 1.7 , x , 0 and x . 1.7. The graph of f is concave down for x , 2 1.7 and 0 , x , 1.7, so f s is negative for x , 2 1.7 and 0 , x , 1.7. Also, since f s is 0 when x 5 0 and x 5 6 1.7, the graph of f r will have a local maximum or minimum at these points. Since the sign of f s changes from negative to positive at x 5 2 1.7, f r has a local minimum at x 5 2 1.7. Since the sign of f s changes from positive to negative at x 5 0, it must be a local maximum point. Since the sign of f s changes from negative to positive at x 5 1.7, it must be a local minimum point.

At x 5 1, the graph changes from positive to negative, so f has a local maximum there. At x 5 5, the graph changes from negative to positive, so f has a local minimum there.

20. a. Graph A is f, graph C is f r, and graph B is f s . We know this because when you take the derivative, the degree of the denominator increases by one. Graph A has a squared term in the denominator, graph C has a cubic term in the denominator, and graph B has a term to the power of four in the denominator. b. Graph F is f, graph E is f r and graph D is f s . We know this because the degree of the denominator increases by one degree when the derivative is taken.

20. a. Graph A is f, graph C is f r, and graph B is f s . We know this because when you take the derivative, the degree of the denominator increases by one. Graph A has a squared term in the denominator, graph C has a cubic term in the denominator, and graph B has a term to the power of four in the denominator. b. Graph F is f, graph E is f r and graph D is f s . We know this because the degree of the denominator increases by one degree when the derivative is taken.
