❖ Finding Intervals of Increase/Decrease Local Max/Mins ❖

Intervals of Increase/Decrease & Finding Local Maximums/Minimums

In this video, I explain the fundamental concept of determining intervals where a function is increasing or decreasing and how to identify local maximum and minimum points. By analyzing the derivative 𝑓′(𝑥), we will break down how to find these intervals and understand how the sign of the derivative helps us determine where a function is rising or falling. Additionally, I will go over how to pinpoint critical points and test them to determine if they represent local maximums or minimums.

What You Will Learn:

How to find intervals of increase and decrease for a function.
How to use the derivative to identify local maximums and minimums.
A step-by-step explanation of testing critical points using f ′(x).
