Differentiation - 1

Introduction


2. Derivative from first principless

Definition of derivative
Lebnitz/s notation
Standard forms
Algebra of derivatives

Ch. 2 Differentiation - 3

Differentiability and continuity

Derivatives - 4

Derivatives of composite functions

If y = f(u) and u = g9x) then y = f[g(x)] is a composite function of x.

example y = u³ and u = 3x+4

y = (3x+4)³ is a composite function

Differentiation - 5

Derivatives of inverse functions

y = f(x)

x = g(y)

Differenentiation - 6

Logarithmic differentiation

y = [f(x)]g(x)

take logarithms on both sides

log y = g(x) log [f(x)]
