- formal definition of a derivative
if y=f(x) then f’(x)=limit as h ➡ 0 f(x+h)-f(x)/h
- where are critical values located?
x values where the second derivative=0 or does not exist
- where are inflection points located?
x values where the 2nd derivative=0 or does not exist and changes from ➕ to ➖
- increasing and decreasing is related to what derivative?
1st
- CU and CD is related to what derivative?
2nd
- diagram to determine relative extrema by the 1st derivative test
if f’(x)=0 at x=a and
f’(x) __➕__|__➖__ (rel max at x=a)
OR
f’(x) __➖__|__➕__ (rel min at x=a)
- relative extrema by the second derivative test
if f’(a)=0 at x=a and f’‘(a)>0 there is a rel min at x=a and if f”(a)<0 there is a rel max at x=a
- 3 conditions for a function to be contiunuos at a point
- f(c) is defined
- lim x➡c f(x) exists
- lime x➡c f(x)=f(c)
- difference between essential and removable discontinuity
essential: occurs where there is a vertical asymptote or a jump
removable: occurs where the function has a hole
- where does a derivative not exist?
AT X=A: hole, vertical asymptote, jump, corner point, vertical tangent, cusp
- difference between average rate if change and instantaneous rate of change
ave rate is the slope of the secant line and instant is the slope of the tangent line
- f’(x)=(x+2)(x-1)(x-3) writing part
f INC (a,c)u(e,➕➰) , DEC (➖➰,a)u(c,e) , max at x=c min at x=a,e f CU (➖➰,b)u(d,➕➰) , CD (b,d) , IP at x=b,d
- where are zeros, discontinuities, vertical asymptotes, holes, and horizontal asymptotes?
zeros: numerator=0, disc.: denominator=0, vert. asymp.: non-cancelled factors in denominator=0, holes: cancelled factors=0, horz. asymp.: lim x➡➕➰ f(x)
- derivative of an inverse
y=f(x) ➡ inv. x=f(y) ➡ d/dx[x]=d/dx[f(y)] ➡ 1=f’(y)d/dx ➡ dy/dx=1/f’(y)
- point-slope form of equation of a tangent line
y-Y1=f’(✖1)(✖-✖1)
- calculating local linearization (tan line approx)
f(✖o +
- when do you use logarithmic differentiation? give an example.
when you have a variable function raised to a power that is also a variable function. y=x^x^2 ➡ lny=x^2lnx ➡ d/dx[lny]=d/dx[x^2lnx] ➡ 1/y•dy/dx=x^2• 1/x+lnx•2x ➡ dy/dx=(x + 2xlnx)•x^x^2
- what is a reimann sum approx?
approx of the area under a curve. the area is approx by adding a finite # of rectangles whose height is determined by using the left, right, or midpoint of each rectangle. width of each rect. is b-a/n and the height is f(✖k) where ✖k is the L, R, or M value of each rect.
- reimann sum example
1/50 [✔1/50 + ✔2/50 + ✔3/50 + … ✔50/50]=⤴0,1 ✔xdx
width, height, interval [0,1]
right endpoint reimann sum
- mean value theroem thereom stated
if f is differentiable on (a,b) and continuous on [a,b] then there is at least one number c in (a,b) such that f’(c)=f(b)-f(a)/b-a
- mean value thereom simply stated
the MVT is where the slope of the tangent equals the slope of the secant
- rolles thereom
if f is differentiable on (a,b) and continuous ob [a,b] and f(a)=f(b)=0 then there is atleast one number c in (a,b) such that f’(c)=0
- intermediate value thereom
if f is continuous on a closed interval [a,b] and k is any number between f(a) and f(b) inclusive then there is atleast one number c in the interval [a,b] such that f(c)=k
- intermediate value thereom applied to finding roots
if f is continuous on [a,b] and f(a)>0 and f(b)0 then there is atleast one zero of f on (a,b)
