FIRST DERIVATIVE TEST to find the max and min (KristaKingMath)

[@aaronpicking4935]

Krista, when I graduate with a degree in Engineering Physics in a few years, it's going to be incredible to know how many people you helped with these videos. I got 100% on my last calc I test. Thank you!!

[@kristakingmath]

Congrats on your test! It makes me smile that I can help along the way. :)

[@nolankrishnaa7]

I UNDERSTOOD EVERYTHING SHE SAID RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING OF THIS VIDEO/ THANK YOU SO MUCH ! :)

[@kristakingmath]

You're so welcome! I'm glad it could help. :)

[@freatythedreary5491]

Our calculus teacher literally taught us nothing and it's 1AM now in China, still working on my H.W. Luckily I found this video!😁

[@kristakingmath]

I'm glad it could help!

[@rookiegaming5622]

This video can help me🤓, Btw im first year college, "SALAMAT" is Thank you☺️

[@fireemblem2770]

I'm not sure what I am paying for my calculus class this year, but I will pay you that amount, because I am actually learning from you. This channel is simply fantastic.

[@kristakingmath]

Thank you, Fire, I'm so happy to help! :)

[@zJessez1]

You're a life saver Krista! I spent so much time re-reading my lecture notes multiple times trying to understanding with no avail, but watching your videos and hearing your explanation makes it so much clearer. Thank you very much!

[@kristakingmath]

You're welcome, I'm so glad it helped!! :D

[@anannoyedpanda]

Prepping for calculus finals in college. This video was a lifesaver for a review. Thank you.

[@Successer]

crazy how this is now Hi-school material

[@renewd]

Your work is so clean and thorough, thank you!

[@danielabernal6252]

Thanks a lot, you've helped me understand more in this video than I did a whole week of lecture.

[@joshmorel2363]

Thank you for being so calm and helpful

[@jackwhite8693]

These videos even manage to put Kahn academy to shame. One day all maths lessons will be taught through use of them. It will take time, but your work will become eternal.

[@kristakingmath]

Jack White Thank you so much!

[@SachinAnalyzes]

dont criticize anyone,everyone is unique in their own way like krista khan academy is putting everything.

[@maazbinmustaqeem]

Why u pulled khan here? And moreover ,why are u comparing Krista with Khan or vice versa? Anyway, she teaches good.

[@cinakakar197]

Jack White Khan Academy is shit

[@ichiboylive8862]

You are very good!!!!

[@karayaqubdaffeh3825]

I understand everything but of your explanation with free of charge. Thank you so much.❤

[@kristakingmath]

You're welcome, Kara! I'm happy to help! :)

[@wasiffaisal2002]

Clear and Concise, loved it :)

[@fireflies15]

I cant believe how easy and clarifying this video was. Just wow. You practically saved me from eternal confusion thank you so much

[@ddharsh2548]

You've made my journey as a mathematician smoother, and I'm incredibly grateful for that! So, thank you, thank you, thank you so much!! I feel like I finally understand something really well to the point where I can teach this to someone else. :) Also, even if your videos are old, they are still high quality, wow!

[@kristakingmath]

Thank you so much, DDharsh! I'm so glad the videos have been helpful and that you've been getting good use out of them! :)

[@prrtygrrl1]

Thank you so much!! This connected so many dots for me and now it is making sense!

[@yeny7194]

wow, so thorough, clear, and precise. Goes very well with the explanations on the textbook. Thank you !!!!

[@saqrsakkaf9730]

OMG i understood everything she said and she has a talent that she brought my attention the whole 15 min i was so fouced THANK YOU

Hi I'm brazilian and i follow your channel and this help me a lot in college , Thank you so much !!

[@kristakingmath]

+Jose Mendes De Moura So glad I could help!

[@mitchong8753]

I am TERRIFIED by math. Right now I am taking a calculus class, and your videos are SO much better than the learning platform my school uses. Your videos make math a bit less scarier, and are right in line with the class' curriculum. Thank You!

[@kevind3946]

The best video I've seen explaining this topic. Thank you!

[@kristakingmath]

😊

[@katherinel8970]

I love your handwriting! makes understanding so much clearer :)

[@kristakingmath]

Thanks, Katherine! :D

[@ahsantanveer7366]

[@kristakingmath]

Awesome! Thanks for letting me know.

[@Rivin2e]

wow, i was able to understand this better in your sub 20 minute video than i was in my hour and 30 minute class. Thank you for this video!

[@kristakingmath]

You're welcome, I'm so glad it helped! :)

[@jorialdridge7182]

[@architjain9754]

This was a very nice video ma'am. U explained it quite well.Sincere thanks from me

[@hollymenna3659]

I watched three different tutor's (paying for one, he is good, but his vids on this were not as good and I understood after watching this video ONE TIME!) THANK YOU!

[@kristakingmath]

Aw thanks, Holly! I'm so glad it could help! :)

[@binite3826]

You make it so much easier!

[@ProfessorAmandaSartor]

For the book I use, -1, 0, 1 are critical points even before you check withe number line. They define critical points as the values where the derivative is zero or undefined. Then you use the first derivative test to determine if those critical points are relative extrema.

[@kristakingmath]

True! I've seen it done one of two ways: 1) The way your textbook does it, where all values at which the derivative is 0 or undefined are "critical points," and then you use the first derivative test to classify those critical points, or 2) Values at which the derivative is 0 or undefined are "critical numbers" or "potential critical numbers," and then you use the first derivative test to verify where the function actually changes direction, and those "potential critical numbers" that lead to a change in direction are then the "critical points." :)

[@Teyros]

Beautifully taught!!! everything i needed to know thank you so much

[@kristakingmath]

Thank you, Taylor, I'm so glad it helped!

[@merhabamuhemmed3990]

I fad up from math classes , even after 4 days our midterm exam will be , while hearing your explanation I start to confidence myself , thank you so much for you ! from Uyghur

[@kristakingmath]

You're so welcome, I'm so glad the videos are helping to clear things up! :D

[@earlmijares1657]

Thanks a lot, Krista! After I watched your vid, I think I can almost pass my quiz. Cheers from PH!

[@kristakingmath]

I hope so, good luck on your quiz! :)

[@sivaprasad9601]

Thanks a ton for the video. Could you please explain how to find the global max and min without plotting the curve for any equation.

[@clevsy]

Thank you so much, that was very clear! Really appreciate the quality!

When I'm in calc class while my teacher is teaching I'm watching this and writing notes from this video instead of his lecture. Guess I'm just there for the attendance grade XD

[@hajiaslam3963]

Lol

[@margaretmoreno1311]

Thank you for sharing this video. I can finally understand it now.

[@kristakingmath]

Awesome! I'm glad it could help!

[@tb2748]

what if your function, f(x), is undefined at certain points? would you include those points where f(x) is undefined in your number line?

[@thesunfirecape]

what do you do if you cant factor what you get in the first derivative test?

[@seamusdeakin4599]

Thank you so much!!! everything that i was looking for!!

[@jazzalfarij1984]

Probably the first time I enjoyed doing math.

[@abdullahbukhari1469]

Thanks alot sista you really explained it beautifully well, I hope KZbin is paying you heavily. In my country we use the terminology Absolute and Relative Extrema.

[@PSEmantic]

Very helpful video thank you!) I have a question.. at the first derivitive test couldn't i just use the interval`s method so if the higher power coefficient is a positive then we start with + at the right side and we swap it to + - + - + -.. from right to left like in this case 4x(x+1)(x-1), we see that highest power coefficient of x is + so we start + , - , + , from right to left -. Just like u did.

[@bheeshmayo8354]

[If in question if they didn't mention any range of function then assume it to be (-∞,+∞) excluding points where function is not defined ] I guess if a function rangers from (-∞ ,+∞) As it is open interval i.e, not extream points then, we can't find global Maxima or global minima . In other words we can only say local Maxima and local minima And we can only find all the global & local {max, min} iff the given interval of the function is close i.e, [a,b]

[@saisripavi]

Krista, I'm saisri. Loved your video. Super pakka Explanations and you have literally saved my exam. Thankyou so much. In India its 7.30 pm now and it's so perfect for me to prepare for the next hour. Thanks.

[@kristakingmath]

Awesome! Thanks for letting me know.

[@-OnionTerror-]

Dear Ms King! I have a very similar problem that I have to work through, the only difference is that my derivative is 4x^3 - 4x + 1. its this +1 on the end that is really confusing me. how would one deal with it?

[@TokiBird]

you're honestly perfect. thank you so much! i have a test on this tomorrow >_

[@emiljacksonlyngdoh5479]

Very good explanation.

[@kristakingmath]

Glad you liked it! :)

[@vusalmammadov334]

Thank you, Krista, for the clear explanation :) I just wanted to ask can we draw a conclusion that (0,0) is a local max without looking at the graph ? Because it is not always easy to sketch the graph.

[@kristakingmath]

Yes, you don't need to sketch the graph at all. You can draw the conclusion just from the little line graph that we made, where we put the critical points -1,0,1 on the number line and looked at the behavior of the graph in between those points. The only reason I showed you the graph was to prove to you that our work was correct, but you never need the graph to draw a conclusion about the local extrema.

[@vusalmammadov334]

Thank you Krista :) That was really very helpful :)

[@andreaprado112]

Thank you soooo much ❤

I been struggling in my calculus subject until I watch this video.

[@kristakingmath]

I'm so glad it helped, mohaimah! :)

[@zainislam554]

what to do if we have only one critical value? how to plot it on number line?

[@kristakingmath]

You still just plot the one point on the number line, then pick test values on either side of it. If your single critical point is x=5, use test values of x=4 and x=6, for example.

[@yemiabadariki9572]

How do we find the derivative of min(x,y)
