PPT-3.1 – Derivative of a Function

Slope of the Tangent Line If f is defined on an open interval containing c and the limit exists then and the line through c f c with slope m is the line tangent to the graph of . Notation dx dx y 00 f 00 Thus dx dx dy dx Example Find the second derivatives of the following functions a 2 x y 00 2 b y 00 c 5 4 5 y 00 The 64257rst derivative gives information about whether a funct ion increases or decreases In fact A d Relating f, f’, and f” . Problem A. Problem B. Conceptual Problems. Inability to see derivative as a function, only a value. Derivative is object but not as an operation. Derivative vs. Differentiation vs. “Finding the derivative”. Section 3.1b. Remember, that in . graphical terms. , the derivative of a. function at a given point can be thought of as the . slope. of the curve at that point….

We say this is the derivative of . f. with respect. to the variable . x. .. Chapter 3.1. Definition of the Derivative. In the previous chapter, we defined the slope of the tangent line to a curve . at a point . as. When this limit exists, it is called the . derivative of . Chapter 3.5. Proving that .  . In section 2.1 you used a table of values approaching 0 from the left and right that . ; but that was not a proof. Because you will need to know this limit (and a related one for cosine), we will begin this section by proving this through geometry. FGFOA Conference, Orlando FL,. Mark A.
