Second Derivative Test

Показать описание
This calculus video tutorial provides a basic introduction into the second derivative test. It explains how to use the second derivative test to identify the presence of a relative maximum or a relative minimum at a critical point. If the second derivative is positive at a critical number - a local minimum is present. If the second derivative is negative at a critical number - a local maximum is present. So to identify the relative extrema, find the first derivative, set it equal to zero and identify the critical numbers. Plug the critical numbers into the second derivative function to determine the concavity of the function to see if its concave up or concave down. If it's concave up - it's a relative maximum. If it's concave down, it's a relative minimum. You can confirm the results of the second derivative test using the first derivative test with a sign chart on a number line.

The problem for me is that I get bored during classes and tend to zone out constantly. These videos are quick and to the point, a sort of TLDR which really helps me with my limited attention span.

Currently in my fifth and hopefully final semester of college. I just wanted to take second to thank the organic chemistry tutor for getting me this far. Couldn't have done it without you

I listened to this on the way to my calc CLEP test. One question on there was this stuff exactly, and I remembered this vid.
I passed by one point.
Thank you so much for all the great videos! I've been watching them for years trying to pass calc 1! And now I have. Thank you so much!😊

Thank you much for these videos. They are extremely helpful and ive been able to understand the concepts and topics more. The way you teach is so organized and neat I am able to stay focused and I actually engage with the examples you do and do it on my own and then fact check.
