1 (A) Lesson Objectives a. Understand what is meant by the terms increasing/decreasing as it relates to functions b. Use graphic and algebraic methods to determine intervals of increase/decrease c. Apply the concept of increasing/decreasing functions (B) Examining the Concept Increasing & Decreasing Functions My sister is a published author and has modelled the sales of her new book using a polynomial function S(m) = m 3 5m 2 + 4m + 7 where S represents the monthly sales in millions of dollars in the first 4 months of the book s release and m represents the number of months since the book was first sold in stores (where 0 < m < 4). A graph showing the monthly sales of her book is included: a. The function is observed to be DECREASING for certain values of m. i. When do her book sales decrease? b. The function is observed to be INCREASING for certain values of m i. When do her book sales increase? ii. How do you KNOW? ii. How do you KNOW? iii. Express this interval using interval notation. iii. Express these intervals using interval notation. iv. Why might the sale of her book be decreasing? iv. Why might the sale of her book be increasing? v. How could we define what is meant by the term DECREASING FUNCTION? v. How could we define what is meant by the term INCREASING FUNCTION?
2 (C) Using a Graphic Approach Intervals of Increase & Decrease Example 1: Determine the intervals in which the function g( = x 2 2x + 3 increases and decreases. Our analysis method will INITIALLY be the TI-84, so start by generating the graph on the TI-84. Example 2: Determine the intervals in which the function f ( x x 12x 1 increases and decreases. 3 Our analysis method will INITIALLY be the TI-84, so start by generating the graph on the TI-84. Now, use the GRAPH to answer the questions: (i) Where does g( increase? Now, use the GRAPH to answer the questions: (i) Where does f( increase? (ii) What KEY POINT has been important in helping you to determine your answer? (ii) What KEY POINT(S) have been important in helping you to determine your answer? (iii) Where does g( decrease? (iii) Where does f( decrease? (iv) What KEY POINT has been important in helping you to determine your answer? (iv) What KEY POINT(S) have been important in helping you to determine your answer?
3 CALCULUS CONNECTION: (i) If we were to draw tangent lines to the curve of g( for x values where g( is INCREASING, what MUST be true about ALL of these tangent lines? CALCULUS CONNECTION: (i) If we were to draw tangent lines to the curve of f( for x values where f( is DECREASING, what MUST be true about ALL of these tangent lines? (ii) What must therefore be true about the DERIVATIVE of g( in this interval? (ii) What must therefore be true about the DERIVATIVE of f( in these intervals? (iii) Here are graphs of g( (parabola) and g ( (the line). How could we use the graph of g ( to help us answer the original question? (iii) Here are graphs of f( (the cubic) and f ( (the parabola). How could we use the graph of f ( to help us answer the original question?
4 (D) Using an Algebraic Approach Derivatives & Intervals of Increase/Decrease Example 1: Determine the intervals in which the function g( = x 2 2x + 3 increases and decreases. Our analysis method will NOW BE CALCULUS & the derivative of g(. STEP #1: Start with your eqn: g( = x 2 2x + 3 STEP 2: Take derivative WHY am I taking the derivative?? g ( = 2x 2 STEP 3a: Solve g ( > 0 2x 2 > 0 x > 1 WHAT is so special about g ( = 0 in the first place? WHY am I solving for g ( being greater than zero??? STEP 3b: Solve g ( < 0 2x 2 < 0 x < 1 WHY am I solving for g ( being less than zero??? FINAL ANSWER:
5 (D) Using an Algebraic Approach Derivatives & Intervals of Increase/Decrease Example 1: Determine the intervals in which the function f ( x x 12x 1increases and decreases. Our 3 analysis method will NOW BE CALCULUS & the derivative of g( STEP #1: Start with your eqn: f ( x x 12x 1 3 STEP 2A: Take derivative WHY am I taking the derivative?? 2x 2 2x 12 STEP 2B: Simplify derivative WHY am I rewriting the quadratic in factored form? 2x 2x ( x x 6) 2( x 3)( x 2) 2 STEP 3A: Solve f ( > 0 (use graph rather than algebra) WHAT is so special about f( = 0 in the first place? WHY am I solving for f ( being greater than zero??? STEP 3B: Solve f ( < 0 (use graph rather than algebra) WHY am I solving for f ( being less than zero??? FINAL ANSWER:
6 (E) Practice the Skill EXAMPLE 1: Use CALCULUS to determine the intervals of increase and decrease for the function f( = -5x 2 20x + 3 EXAMPLE 2: Use CALCULUS to determine the intervals of increase and decrease for the function y = x 3 12x + 15 Use the graphing calculator to verify your answer. Include a sketch. Use the graphing calculator to verify your answer. Include a sketch. (F) Homework: From Nelson Advanced Functions & Calculus, Chap 4.1, p273, Q1cd, 3, 5bce, 6ef, 7deh, 9
