Increasing & Decreasing Functions & The First Derivative Test (3.3) November 29th, 2012

I. Increasing & Decreasing Functions Defs. of Increasing & Decreasing Functions: A function f is increasing on an interval if for any two numbers x 1 and x 2 in the interval x 1 < x 2 implies f(x 1 )<f(x 2 ). A function f is decreasing on an interval if for any two numbers x 1 and x 2 in the interval x 1 f(x 2 ).

*Increasing is going up from left to right, decreasing is going down from left to right.

Thm. 3.5: Test for Increasing & Decreasing Functions: Let f be a function that is continuous on the closed interval [a, b] and differentiable on the open interval (a, b). 1. If f’(x)>0 for all x in (a, b), then f is increasing on [a, b], (because f has a positive slope on (a, b)). 2. If f’(x)<0 for all x in (a, b), then f is decreasing on [a, b], (because f has a negative slope on (a, b)). 3. If f’(x)=0 for all x in (a, b), then f is constant on [a, b], (because f is a horizontal line & has a slope of 0 on (a, b)).

constant f’(x)=0 decreasing f’(x)<0 increasing f’(x)>0

Ex. 1: Find the open intervals on which is increasing or decreasing.

Guidelines for Finding Intervals on Which a Function is Increasing or Decreasing: Let f be continuous on the interval (a, b). To find the open intervals on which f is increasing or decreasing, use the following steps. 1. Locate the critical numbers of f in (a, b) and use these numbers to determine the test intervals. 2. Determine the sign of f’(x) at one test value in each interval. 3. Use Thm. 3.5 to determine whether f is increasing or decreasing on each interval.

You Try: Identify the open intervals on which the function is increasing or decreasing.

Thm. 3.6: The First Derivative Test: Let c be a critical number of a function f that is continuous on the open interval I containing c. If f is differentiable on the interval, except possibly at c, then f(c) can be classified as follows. II. The First Derivative Test

1. If f’(x) changes from negative to positive at c, then f has a relative minimum at (c, f(c)). f’(x)<0 f’(x)>0 (-)(+) (c, f(c))

2. If f’(x) changes from positive to negative at c, then f has a relative maximum at (c, f(c)). f’(x)>0 f’(x)<0 (+) (-) (c, f(c))

3. If f’(x) is positive on both sides of c or negative on both sides of c, then f(c) is neither a relative minimum nor a relative maximum. f’(x)>0 (+) (c, f(c))

Ex. 2: Find the relative extrema of the function on the interval.

You Try:Find the relative extrema of the function.
