Equivalently it is where the second derivative is equal to zero -- which implies the first derivative is at a local extrema.
In the context here, it's clear that the inflection point would be the point of greatest change.
- sixbrx 15y agoWell not quite equivalent exactly - the second derivative could just touch zero and then go back whence it came :) That wouldn't be an inflection point I think, I'm not sure what you'd call that...
