 +  * =) Finding the critical numbers of a function is the first step to finding the signs of the first and second on an interval, to determine where a fcn is increasing or decreasing, hence the nature of its local extremes (max, min, neither), intervals of concavity, and points of inflection. The videos explain and give many examples of how to use the FDT and SDT, showing relevant examples done neatly and clearly.

At the end of the lecture I mused 'maybe f(1/4) is a cusp,' which is ridiculous, since f'​(1/​4) = 0, hence exists! I edited that out : /

 +
 +    * For Friday: Jot down in your notebook 1 exercise from //each// of Secs. 2.9, 3.1, 3.3, 3.4 for me to address the following week; I'll send around a 'sign up sheet' on which you will write the question exercise numbers down and //I will do as my hw over the weekend//

 +
 +Please keep reading Sec 3.4 carefully! And watch the videos therein. Also:
 +
 +  * View [[https://​www.youtube.com/​watch?​v=iUbvL-GJZbA|Limits at infinity of rational functions]] and [[https://​www.youtube.com/​watch?​v=zDI_cSQJjBg|Graphing rational functions]]

 +
 +  * Sec 3.4 #1-31 odd
 +
 +  * In-class brief quiz Friday on Sec 2.9, finding L(x) for f(x) near some value x = a; use it to approximate the function at x near a), 3.1-3.3 using critical numbers and POI to describe the graph of a polynomial, including all features (local extrema, POI, intervals of increase/​decrease/​concavity) and sketch it! 
 +
 +**WEEKEND AND LAST WEEK OF COURSE, DEC 4-10**
 +
 +  * Read Sec 3.5 and watch the videos therein. I'll add one brief set of exercises, from Sec 3.5
 +
 +  * Read the {{:​people:​mckenzie:​fall_2021_calculus_of_curve_sketching_fdt_and_sdt.pdf|Calculus of Curve Sketching handout}} and do the unworked exercises at the end of it. Note, this study guide doesn'​t have the rational functions and asymptotes on it. I am writing a "Part 2" but will probably not have it soon. So see the videos I posted last week. 
 +
 +The following are from the director, Prof Kazmierczak:​
 +
 +  * NEW DUE DATE 8-o //Due Dec 10, counts 3% of course grade// {{:​people:​mckenzie:​curve_sketching_homework_kaz_.pdf|Curve sketching assignment}}
 +
 +//Note regarding the above//: The function for #1 has one x-intercept (root), and it's difficult to find its value. The root is approximately //x// = 3.1, so use this value for the //​x//​-intercept when doing #1.
 +
 +  * The are many problems in WebAssign for Sec. 3.5, for practice only, and will not be graded for the course. You should do them! They are your best prep for the final exam.
