@ f(c) is maximum value of f on S if f(x) < f(c) for every x in S.

Definition (critical point)
A point c in the domain of a function f is a critical point either f’(c) =0
or f’(c) does not exist.
Theorem (The First Derivative Test of increasing and decreasing
functions)
If f is a continuous function on [a, b] and differentiable on (a, b).
@ If f'(x) > 0 for every x in [a, bl, then f is increasing on (a, b].
@ If f'(x) <0 for every x in [a,b], then f is decreasing on [a, b).

@ f' changes from positive to negative at x = 1, then f(x) has a local
maximum value. f(1) = 11 => (1,11) isa maximum point of this
function.
@ f' changes from negative to positive at x = 4, then f(x) has a local
