a1 , a2 , a3 , . . . are in AP (Let Common difference is d1)

b1 , b2 , b3 , . . . are in AP (Let Common difference is d2)


And a1 = 2 , a10 = 3

Double Derivative Test

If f’(x) = 0 at x = a, then

(1) f”(a) > 0 ⇒ f(x) has local minima at x = a

(2) f”(a) < 0 ⇒ f(x) has local maxima at x = a

Remark
If f’(a) = 0 and also f”(a) = 0 then Double
Derivative Test is inconclusive.
Analysis of Cubic

First let us pick a cubic f(x) = ax3 + bx2 + cx + d


Clearly, f’(x) is a quadratic and hence has:

(i) Two distinct real roots or


(ii) Two equal real roots or
(iii) Non real roots
