CHAPTER 6. GRAPHING EQUATIONS/FUNCTIONS
4: Maximum
Maximum is the counter-part for the Minimum command. Maximum will find the maximum
y-value between your identified lower bound and upper bound and it will visually move the
cursor to this (x, y) coordinate.
Example:
Find the maximum y-value between the x-values of -3 and 0.
Press to use the Maximum command. For the lower bound, use the arrow keys to
move the cursor near an x-value of -3 and then press . Notice that there is now a triangle
towards the top of the screen marking your lower bound. For the upper bound, use the arrow
keys to move the cursor to the right, near an x-value of 0. When you press , the calculator
will find an estimate of the maximum y-value.
