15 weeks Ms. Krauss! I just wanted to take the well deserved time you earned to say DANKE, DANKE, DANKE! I will miss you and your teachings Ms. Krauss. I wish you the best of luck and hope you succeed in wherever life takes you.
This week we began our review for next Monday's Chapter 4 Test. From all the way of finding local and global extrema analytically, or without a calculator, to finding how fast a ladder is being pushed away from a wall, we will definitely see how well we retain.
Essentially, chapter 4 showed us how to draw conclusions from derivatives and the extreme values of a function and about the general shape of a function's graph.
Something I will study this weekend is how to sketch a curve of a graph without the use of a calculator. Essentials I want to keep in mind are that when the derivative is equal to zero is > 0 then the original function is increasing and opposite for when it is < 0. Then concavity can be concluded by: y">0 = concave up and y"<0 = concave down. Therefore concavity can be determined by the second derivatives. Then from concavity, we can find extrema from where the first derivative equals 0. If it is f" of the derivative is less than 0 then there is a maximum. Then the opposite is true as well, when the derivative of 0 then at f">0 of the derivative has a local minimum.
