A chemical is poured into cylindrical and conical flasks at a constant rate. It takes seconds to fill each flask to the brim. If represents the depth of the chemical at any time in , for which flask does reach an absolute maximum on the interval ?
Find the absolute maximum and minimum values of the function on the interval [−1,3].
h(x)=5x3e−2x
Find the critical points, the absolute maximum value, and the absolute minimum value of the function on the interval (round to three decimal places). Also, plot the function using a graphing utility.
Analyze the graph of the function on the interval to determine whether the absolute extreme values exist.
Graph the function and determine its absolute extreme values.
