(aka Torres' Theorem)

Definition

Theorem

Definition
If a function is continuous on a closed interval [a,b] then it has a max + min value on the interval
Term

2nd

Test

Definition
if you plug the critical value from 1st derivative into the 2nd derivative, then a positive result gives a relative minimum. (The card says maximum.) Similarly, a negative result gives a relative maximum.

How to find

Horizontal

Asymptote

Definition

If the degree of the denominator > the degree of the numerator, the horizontal asymptote is y = 0.

 
If the degree of the denominator < the degree of the numerator, there is no horizontal asymptote.


If the degrees of the numerator and denominator are equal, the horizontal asymptote = top highest exponent divided by bottom highest exponent.
