[Math4u] Re: Maxima & Minima

Ray,
The function F(x)=x is a line having a slope of 1. This line goes on
in both directions forever. If there were ends to the line, the max
and min would be at the ends. But this line has no maximum or minimum.

Also, a maximum or minimum occurs when the slope is zero or the slope
is indeterminate such as when the function comes to a point. There can
be no maximum or minimum when the slope is one.
Regards,
Brian
