@regal tapir so did you find derivative yet ?
This is where i got to but idk whether its right
also is this a test ๐
yee you are right
for c
nope HAHA just revision for my exam tmr
at turning points derivative is 0 right ๐
oo okie
at turning points derivative is 0 right ?
i have no idea ๐ญ๐ญ
so we can equate it with 0 and find x coordinates
well, now you do
at a turning point you will have derivative = 9
@regal tapir so where you at ๐ can you find turning points yourself from here
wait so do i use derivative and equal it to 0 to find turning point?
yup
$3x^2 - 12x + 9 = 0$
Akki#gtfoanemia
ahh sorry I was gone
yup you are right
Ooo now we gotta find if its maxima or minima
when its minima, 2nd derivative is positive
when its maxima 2nd derivative is negative
we can do the 2nd derivative test
whats the 2nd derivative
6x - 12?
yes
soo is it maxima or minima
lets talk about x=1 for now
Do i sub it in or???
sub it in
=0 ?
Wait wdym ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
what are your turning points ๐
Where am i suppose to get that from ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
last question you did
what were you supposed to find in that
OH
so those turning points
C (ii) asks if those turnings points are maxima or minima
for that we do this
How do i know whether its positive or negative
what were the points ๐
and what was the 2nd derivative you found
do i see the x or y
well you did find 2nd derivative based on x
so you see the x
well you found the 2nd derivative right
Ooo and the points too
good job
