No. If you have more than two points for a linear function any two points can be used to find the slope.
Well, honey, if you're looking for a function that passes through the points (2, 15) and (3, 26), you're talking about a linear function. The slope of this function would be 11 (rise of 11 over run of 1), so the equation would be y = 11x + b. To find the y-intercept, plug in one of the points, let's say (2, 15), and solve for b. So, the function that passes through those points is y = 11x + 4.
Since there are no "following" points, none of them.
A set of points forming a straight line.
a function whose magnitude depends on the path followed by the function and on the end points.
No. If you have more than two points for a linear function any two points can be used to find the slope.
Take the derivative of the function and set it equal to zero. The solution(s) are your critical points.
Set the first derivative of the function equal to zero, and solve for the variable.
To determine the maximum displacement, you need to calculate the peak value of the displacement function. This is done by finding the extreme values (maximum or minimum) of the function, typically by taking the derivative and setting it to zero to find critical points. Once you have these critical points, evaluate the function at those points to find the maximum displacement.
The "critical points" of a function are the points at which the derivative equals zero or the derivative is undefined. To find the critical points, you first find the derivative of the function. You then set that derivative equal to zero. Any values at which the derivative equals zero are "critical points". You then determine if the derivative is ever undefined at a point (for example, because the denominator of a fraction is equal to zero at that point). Any such points are also called "critical points". In essence, the critical points are the relative minima or maxima of a function (where the graph of the function reverses direction) and can be easily determined by visually examining the graph.
A set point where all measurements can be taken from
The domain of a rational function is the whole of the real numbers except those points where the denominator of the rational function, simplified if possible, is zero.
the set of points equidistant from a fixed point
A specific mixture has a fixed boiling point.
This set of points forms a circle with the fixed point as its center.
You would need to know the distance travelled between two fixed points and the time taken to travel between those two points.
It is a line segment.
