Solution

An absolute maximum point is a point where the function holds its greatest possible value. Similarly, an absolute minimum point is a point where the function holds its least possible value.

We can use The second derivative test to determine the absolute maximum and minimum of a function under certain conditions.

Hence, we can find the absolute maximum and minimum of a function by second derivative test.
