STA 102 - Lesson 24 Chapter 4 - Applications of Derivatives 2023studentsv

This document contains chapter summaries and test information for STA 102. It summarizes Chapter 4 which covers applications of derivatives, including increasing and decreasing functions, critical points, maxima and minima using the first and second derivative tests, concavity, and applications to economics like cost, demand, revenue, and profit functions. It provides an example problem finding the intervals where a function is increasing and decreasing and sketching the curve. It also defines maxima and minima, states the first derivative test theorem, and includes another example finding the local minimum and maximum of a given function. Finally, it announces a test on Chapters 4, 5, 6, and 7 to take place on July 4, 2023 from 11
