Test 2 AP Calculus BC w/ Advanced Topics CALCULATOR ACTIVE What is on the test?

? Given graph of f(x), find where graph of f(x) is increasing/concave up. If f(2) = 0, is there a local extrema at 2? (use first/second derivative test) Provide an example of a function where you would try to use the second derivative test and it would come out inconclusive A function that at some number, the functions derivative at that value is zero and the second derivative is also zero, we do not know if it is concave up or concave down. (x3 is an example where second derivative is inconclusive, at x = 0. x4 will have an inconclusive second derivative test, but it DOES have a minimum) One Optimization/model (take derivative, justify max or min). Example: tooth decay, salmon, atomic forces. Max/min on derivatives are inflection points on the original. f(x) changing signs is an inflection point on f(x) Know how to do first/second derivative test. (only need to do one) True/false questions Sketch original function from a derivative Critical number: where number is 0 in original but undefined in derivative

What should I know? Max and Min of f(x) is Inflection point on f(x) f(x) changing signs is an inflection point on f(x) o f(x) changes signs that indicates critical point on f(x) o critical point f(x), indicates an inflection point on f(x) st 1 Derivative Test: 0s of first derivative o Local Maximums and Minimums of function nd 2 Derivative Test: plug 0 of first derivative test into second derivative equation o Concavity of Function o If positive, its concave up, has minimum at x o If negative, its concave down, has maximum at x o If 0, x is inconclusive o Does not work with cusps (x, f(x) ) is max or min if f(x) is negative or positive, respectively. If it is 0 its inconclusive. Any point on a function for which f(x) = f(x) = 0. X3 is inconclusive because you have a tangent slope of zero at an inflection point rather than at the maxs and mins. F(x) will be zero at x=0, so is that the max? No, it is just where the function goes from negative to positive and flattens out in the process it is simply an inflection point.
