Assignment #7

1) The general solution to (x^n dx) is [ (x^(n+1)) / (n+1) ] + C. The C is very important because it represents a constant that will differentiate one integral from another.

2)
sin(x) dx = -cos(x) - It is going in reverse (up instead of down) of S,C,-S,-C
cos(x) dx = sin(x) - It is going in reverse (up instead of down) of S,C,-S,-C
sec^2(x) dx = tan(x) - Memorization, since secant is squared I think of tan
sec(x)tan(x) dx = sec(x) - Memorization, since there is a sec and a tan I think of sec
csc^2(x) dx = -cot(x) - Memorization, since co secant is squared I think of a negative co tangent
Integral csc(x)cot(x) dx = -csc(x) - Memorization, since there is a co secant and a co tangent i think of a negative co secant

Assignment #6

The Second Derivative test is used to determine at what x-values a differentiable function can have relative extrema by seeing if the critical value plugged into it makes the equation positive or negative. If the critical number makes the function a negative the function would be concave down with a relative maximum. If the critical number makes the function a positive the function is concave up with a relative minimum. The First Derivative test is used to find these critical values that can be used in the Second Derivative test to determine the function's concavity, relative minimum, and relative maximum.
