5 Objectives Objectives The concept of instantaneous rate of change. The definition of the derivative. Using the definition to find a derivative. Robb T. Koether (Hampden-Sydney College) Instantaneous Rate of Change Wed, Feb 8, / 11

6 Instantaneous Rate of Change Definition (Instantaneous Rate of Change) The instantaneous rate of change of f (x) with respect to x at a point c is f (c + h) f (c) lim. h 0 h Robb T. Koether (Hampden-Sydney College) Instantaneous Rate of Change Wed, Feb 8, / 11

7 Instantaneous Rate of Change Instantaneous Rate of Change Let the cost function be C(x) = 20x where x is the number of units produced. Find the instantaneous rate of change of cost relative to production when production is x = 100. Robb T. Koether (Hampden-Sydney College) Instantaneous Rate of Change Wed, Feb 8, / 11

8 Instantaneous Rate of Change Instantaneous Rate of Change Let the cost function be C(x) = x x where x is the number of units produced. Find the instantaneous rate of change of cost relative to production when production (a) is x = 100. (b) is x = 200. (c) is x = 300. Robb T. Koether (Hampden-Sydney College) Instantaneous Rate of Change Wed, Feb 8, / 11

9 The Derivative Definition (The Derivative) The derivative of f (x) with respect to x is the function f f (x + h) f (x) (x) = lim. h 0 h Robb T. Koether (Hampden-Sydney College) Instantaneous Rate of Change Wed, Feb 8, / 11

10 The Derivative The Derivative Let the cost function be C(x) = x x where x is the number of units produced. (a) Find the derivative C (x) of cost with respect to production. (b) Evaluate C (x) at x = 100, x = 200, and x = 300. Robb T. Koether (Hampden-Sydney College) Instantaneous Rate of Change Wed, Feb 8, / 11
