Optimization

We do not learn how to find extreme values merely for school. From profit maximization for businesses to trip planning for travelers, it has very pragmatic usages in many facets of our daily life. Extreme values hold answers to questions like how one can maximize the profit while minimizing the cost and how to maximize/minimize the product by using the same amount of material. In this section on optimization, we are going to apply the knowledge to tackle problems on area, volume and profit maximization as well as area and cost minimization.
