That minimum value is. y (2) = 2 3 â 3 Â· 2 2 + 2 = 8 â 12 + 2 = â2. b) y = â2 x 3 â 3 x 2 + 12 x + 10. At x = 1 there is a maximum of y = 17. At x = â2 there is a minimum of y = â10. c) y = 2 x 3 + 3 x 2 + 12 x â 4. Since f ' (x) = 0 has no real solutions, there are no extreme values. d) y = 3 x 4 â 4 x 3 â 12 x 2 + 2.
Indirectly, physics has contributed to forensic science via the invention of the microscope, the electron microscope, the mass spectrometer, and optical spectrometers; but directly, its role in forensic science has been minimal.
The second is science, which is derived from the Greek for knowledge and is today closely tied to the scientific method, a systematic way of acquiring knowledge. Taken together, then, forensic science can be seen as the use of the scientific methods and processes in crime solving.
