Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Using the function f(x) = -x^4 + 4x^3, find all critical points, classify them with the second derivative test, and identify the points of inflection.
💡 Hint: Solve for critical points using the first derivative and analyze points using the second derivative.
Question 2
An optimization problem states: You need to build a rectangular field with a fixed perimeter of 40m. What dimensions maximize the area?
💡 Hint: You need to set up the area equation, find its derivative, and apply the second derivative test.
