KeylaB said:I am new, but i have a question about the TI -89 Titanium calculator, does anyone how if i can plug in the equation f(x)=2x^3-15x^2+36x-1 to identify each location of the local maximun and minimum, and inflexion poits? Will this calculator do this?
To find the maximum or minimum of a function using a TI-89 calculator, follow these steps:
Yes, you can find multiple maxima or minima of a function using a TI-89 calculator. To do this, follow the same steps as finding a single maximum or minimum, but instead of entering a single lower and upper bound, enter a list of multiple bounds separated by commas. The calculator will display the values and corresponding x-values of all the maxima or minima within the specified bounds.
No, there is no specific function or command to find maxima and minima on a TI-89 calculator. You can use the built-in "Maximum" and "Minimum" options in the "Calc" menu, or you can use the "F1" key to access the "Function" menu and manually enter the function and bounds. Both methods will give you the same result.
Yes, you can find maxima and minima of a function without graphing it on a TI-89 calculator. This can be useful if the function is too complex to graph or if you only need to find the numerical values and not the graphical representation. Simply follow the steps mentioned in question 1, without graphing the function beforehand.
Yes, you can use a TI-89 calculator to find maxima and minima of functions with multiple variables. This can be done by using the "F1" key to access the "Function" menu and manually entering the function with multiple variables. Then, use the "F3" key to access the "Calc" menu and select the "Maximum" or "Minimum" option. Enter the appropriate bounds for each variable and the calculator will display the value of the maximum or minimum and the corresponding values for each variable.
