10 cards from this deck
Finding best outcome by making a quantity max or min
Making a quantity as large as possible
Making a quantity as small as possible
Points where the derivative equals zero
Set derivative equal to zero and solve
Determine if stationary point is max, min, or neither
f′′(x)>0f''(x) > 0f′′(x)>0, gradient increasing, cup shape
f′′(x)<0f''(x) < 0f′′(x)<0, gradient decreasing, cap shape
Where curve changes concavity and f′′(x)=0f''(x) = 0f′′(x)=0
Both stationary points AND boundary values
