    MHB Finding Max & Min of Optimization Problem: How To Distinguish

    find f^1(x) = 0 x('s)= critical numbers plus some points (a,b) or [a,b] f(x,a,b) = extrema Larget # max smallest # min Using f^2(x) for the critical #'s f2(x) > 0 then min and ect.

    Re: Help finding the local min in a peicewise function f^1(x)={2x {2 0=2x x=0 thats what i had but i think its wrong

    MHB Help finding the local min in a piecewise function

    f(x) = { { 16 - x^2, if -4 <= x <= 0 { 2x - 3, if 0 <= x <= 4 I did the first derivative test and got zero but i don't think that's right. Any help?
