Objective: Upon completion of this lesson, students should be able to:
- Know what a critical number is and what can be happening graphically at them.
- Know the difference between absolute and relative extrema.
- Find absolute extrema using the LCR table and know why it works.
- Identify critical numbers graphically and algebraically.
- Find relative extrema using an inc/dec table and know why it works.
Lesson Questions:
- What is a critical number?
- What is the difference between absolute and relative extrema?
- Why does an LCR table work for absolute extrema and not relative?
- What could be happening at a critical number?
- How can you identify critical numbers from a graph?
