+ - If $f´(x) < 0$ in the interval $[a,b]$, $f$ is **decreasing** on $[a,b]$.

+Function only change whether they are increasing/decreasing/constant at the **critical points**/"relative extrema".
+
+These points and whether the intervals between them increase/decrease can be found by using an **interval chart/line** using the first derivative.
