Absolute Minima and Maxima in Closed Interval
Now to find the extreme points in any interval, we need to follow some basic steps. Let’s say we have a function f(x) and a region D. We want to find the extreme value of the function in this interval.
How to Find Absolute Maxima and Minima in Closed Interval?
Step 1: Find the critical points of the function in the interval D,
f'(x) = 0
Step 2: Find the value of the function at the extreme points of interval D.
Step 3: The largest value and smallest value found in the above two steps are the absolute maximum and absolute minimum of the function.
Absolute Minima and Maxima
Absolute Maxima and Minima are the maximum and minimum values of the function defined on a fixed interval. A function in general can have high values or low values as we move along the function. The maximum value of the function in any interval is called the maxima and the minimum value of the function is called the minima. These maxima and minima if defined on the whole functions are called the Absolute Maxima and Absolute Minima of the function.
In this article, we will learn about Absolute Maxima and Mimima, How to calculate absolute maxima and minima, their examples, and others in detail.
