MAXIMUM

Purpose

Find the coordinates of a relative maximum of a function.

Operation

The function must be in Y1 in the list.

Draw a graph of the function and trace to a point near a maximum point.

Activate the program, which will give the coordinates of the maximum point, correct to three decimal places.

Test the program by finding the relative maximum of the function

y = x3 x – 1.

The result is (-0.577,-0.664).
