Question
If $f(x)$ is the function required to find largest term inQ.51 then(a) $f$ increases for all $x$(b) $f$ decreases for all $x$(c) $f$ has a maximum at $x=\sqrt[3]{400}$(d) $f$ increases on $[0,9]$.
Step 1
51: $f(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 + 12x - 8$ Now, let's analyze the function: Show more…

Let $f(x)=x^{4}-4 x^{3}+6 x^{2}-4 x+1$ then (a) $f$ increases on $[1, \infty)$ (b) $f$ decreases on $[1, \infty)$ (c) $f$ has a minimum at $x=1$ (d) $f$ has neither maximum nor minimum
(a) Apply the Increasing/Decreasing Function Test to the function $f(x)=\sqrt{x}$. What do you conclude? (b) Is $f$ increasing on the interval $[0, \infty) ?$ Explain.
Applications of the Derivative
The Mean Value Theorem
If $f^{\prime}(x)>0$ for all $x$ in $[a, b],$ then $f$ attains its maximum value on $[a, b]$ at $b.$
