Wow! Thank you for your lovely feedback Alex.

[@manjulav6713]

Thanks a lot.This helped me in TS EAMCET exam!!

[@MathsWithJay]

Thank you Manjula...good luck for your results...in England, students need this for A' level

Thanks jay

@Evans Wanyoike: Thank you!

But I still didn't understand how differentiating it help us find turning point? I mean how does it works?

[@HaroldWalden]

Differentiating allows you to find the gradient of a function at any point across its domain. One of the fundamental characteristics of turning points is at the moment the function turns around the gradient is zero. So if we can find the x-value of the turning point we can then solve the original function for the y-value. Have a look at this video that I made on the subject: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hILPmpuaiLmGoc0

Maths with Jay no worries 😃 Your videos are great by the way!

[@joex8au04]

Hi Jay, Thank you so much, but 12x - 10 when x is equal to -1/3, shouldn't answer be -50?

[@joex8au04]

my bad, stupid me!

[@MathsWithJay]

No!

[@faaizas2119]

I didn't understand how to find the max and min points using part a. Could you explain please?

[@MathsWithJay]

At what time in the video?

[@faaizas2119]

@@MathsWithJay 9:50 for part d

[@MathsWithJay]

To distinguish between the points, we work out the second derivative...if it is negative, we have a max, and if positive, we know it is a min

[@abidemioluwatoyin2843]

I don't understand hw u got the y =-2/27-5/9+4/3+2

[@nicktasticartworks]

I'm sorry but I don't get how x is 1/3 at 4:11

[@MathsWithJay]

We solve 3x+1=0 by subtracting 1 from both sides, then divide both sides by 3.

[@rahulk4482]

Could you please explain to me why the quadratic equation is being divided by 2 in the beginning. At 3:12

[@MathsWithJay]

It makes it simpler to factorise....but if you choose to use the quadratic formula, you don't need to divide by 2

[@ethan-yd6gw]

Is the stationary point the same as a turning point?

[@MathsWithJay]

No: a turning point is a stationary point; however not all stationary points are turning points. At a turning point, there is a local maximum or minimum. Stationary points that are not turning points are horizontal inflection points....for example, look at the graph of y = x^3 at the origin.

best teacher ever

[@MathsWithJay]

Wow! Thank you

[@keiraknight3734]

Where did u find these questions and where can I get the mark scheme

[@MathsWithJay]

This came from Edexcel.

[@faithchidogarikayi43]

Thanks Jay you are a lifesaver

[@MathsWithJay]

Thank you!

[@xMrHulx]

Do you work at Sparx Maths by any chance ?

[@MathsWithJay]

No...does someone there sound like me?

[@abhinav7715]

what to do if second derivative comes as 0

[@MathsWithJay]

You could look at the sign of the first derivative on each side of the stationary point.

[@utuntupamed6224]

Thank you m j u are my saviour on this topic

[@MathsWithJay]

That's great!

[@pawanaditya6237]

Thanks a lot , this video helped me grind graph chapter. Bless you

[@MathsWithJay]

Glad it helped!

[@moinuddinkassmi9671]

For part d, why did we require the double differentiation result to find if it was the minima or the maxima. We could just see if the y is higher or lower. Please correct me if I am wrong lol

[@MathsWithJay]

In an exam, you would be expected to do more than just find that the first derivative is zero....there will be some examples where you won't be able to "see" the graph.

[@junaidzahir7869]

Thanks I had the exact same question

can we use the b 2 formulae

[@MathsWithJay]

@zara: What are they?

[@zarasaqib1054]

why is there a math error when I used the quadratic formula typed

[@MathsWithJay]

@zara: Where did you type it?

[@sparklymoon9909]

just saw this and would like to ask about the question that i couldn't solve 😟 can you help me with this question 👉 Determine the stationary points and find their natures for each of the following curves . (a) y = 5 - 2x³ , i got the dy/dx, but i don't know how to do the next step which is, "when dy/dx = 0 " .

[@MathsWithJay]

The next step is to put your dy/dx equal to zero and solve for x, just as in this video.
