What is Finding and Classifying Stationary Points about?

This document describes how to locate and classify stationary points of a function. It provides a 3 step process to find the locations of stationary points: 1) take the derivative and set it equal to 0, 2) solve for x, 3) substitute x back into the original function to find y. The second derivative is used to classify stationary points as maxima, minima or points of inflection. An example problem demonstrates finding the two stationary points of y = x^3 - 3x + 2 and classifying them as a minimum and maximum
