What is the Absolute Maximum?

Open in App

Solution

The absolute maximum will aid us in accurately sketching the function graphs. A function's absolute maximum is a critical component.
In fact, this comes in handy when solving optimization problems such as maximising profit, locating the highest point, and determining the largest area covered.
The absolute maximum of the function represents the function's maximum value within a given interval or across its domain. There can only be one absolute maximum for a function.
