Exercise 19 Page 340

A turning point is either a relative maximum or a relative minimum of the function.

Relative maxima: x=1
Relative minima: x=- 1.2, and x=4

Practice makes perfect

We want to estimate the x-coordinate of every turning point. A turning point is either a relative maximum or minimum of the function. Let's look at the given graph to see where the turning points are.

The graph has one relative maximum point and two relative minimum points. Relative Maximum:& x ≈ 1 Relative Mimimum:& x ≈ -1.2 and x≈ 4
