We can prove rigorously that whenever a function has a relative extremum, its derivative is either undefined or 0 there. It follows that wherever the function has a nonzero derivative, there is no …

Would a suitable solution be saying that at a relative maxima, the second derivative is negative, while at a relative minima, the second derivative is positive?

Extrema is the general name for maximum and minimum points. This video shows how to identify relative and absolute extrema in the graph of a function.

Video transcript - [Instructor] Pamela was asked to find where h of x equals x to the third minus six x squared plus 12 x has a relative extremum. This is her solution. So step one, it looks like she …

Review how we use differential calculus to find relative extremum (minimum and maximum) points.

相对 极大值 的点是使函数在该点改变方向，从 递增 变为 递减 （使该点成为图中的 "峰值"）的点。

Absolute and relative extrema Learn Introduction to minimum and maximum points Finding relative extrema (first derivative test)

One extreme phenotype is more fit than all the other phenotypes. For example, if the beetle population moves into a new environment with dark soil and vegetation, the dark green beetles …

Let's say I'm looking at a graph with two maximums and two minimums (four points). So the absolute max/min would be the highest/lowest value out of the four points on a graph, and the …
