Worksheet 22 PDF

This worksheet contains 4 questions applying the First Derivative Test to find relative extrema of functions. Question 1 has students find extrema of f(x) = 4x^3 - 6x^2 - 72x + 28. Question 2 finds extrema of f(x) = (x^2 - 9)^(3/2). Question 3 uses intervals to find extrema of f(x) = (4x^4 + 4)/x. Question 4 finds critical numbers, intervals of increase/decrease, and applies the test to f(x) = (x^2 - 3x - 4)/(x - 2).

Math 171 - Worksheet 22

Question 1
Apply the First Derivative Test to determine the relative extrema of the function
given by f (x) = 4x3 − 6x2 − 72x + 28.

Question 2
2
Find the relative extrema of f (x) = (x2 − 9) 3 using the First Derivative Test.

1
Question 3
4
Determine the relative extrema of f (x) = 4x 2+ 4 using a table of intervals and
x
test vlaues within the respective intervals.

Question 4
2
For the function f (x) = x − 3x − 4
x − 2 , find any critical numbers and the open
intervals on which the function is increasing or decreasing. Then apply the First
Derivative Test to identify all relative exrema.
