Behind every calculus problem, neatly packaged and ready to solve, is a word problem. But before coming to terms with word problems, this program examines local extrema and local maximums and minimums. Next, the first- and second-derivative tests for local extrema are studied. Finally, max/min word problems—like how to make packaging for Uncle Skippy’s Premium Edible Dirt—are addressed, and the five-step process for solving them is applied. (34 minutes)
