1 AWL/Tomas_cp7-8/9/ :6 AM Page 7 Capter DIFFERENTIATION OVERVIEW In Capter, we efine te slope of a curve at a point as te limit of secant slopes. Tis limit, calle a erivative, measures te rate at wic a function canges, an it is one of te most important ieas in calculus. Derivatives are use to calculate velocit an acceleration, to estimate te rate of sprea of a isease, to set levels of prouction so as to maimize efficienc, to fin te best imensions of a clinrical can, to fin te age of a preistoric artifact, an for man oter applications. In tis capter, we evelop tecniques to calculate erivatives easil an learn ow to use erivatives to approimate complicate functions.. Te Derivative as a Function At te en of Capter, we efine te slope of a curve ƒs at te point were to be HISTORICAL ESSAY lim Te Derivative : ƒs + - ƒs. We calle tis limit, wen it eiste, te erivative of ƒ at. We now investigate te erivative as a function erive from ƒ b consiering te limit at eac point of te omain of ƒ. DEFINITION Derivative Function Te erivative of te function ƒ() wit respect to te variable is te function ƒ wose value at is ƒs + - ƒs, : ƒ s lim provie te limit eists. 7 Coprigt 5 Pearson Eucation, Inc., publising as Pearson Aison-Wesle

Te omain of ƒ is te set of points in te omain of ƒ for wic te limit eists, an te omain ma be te same or smaller tan te omain of ƒ. If ƒ eists at a particular, we sa tat ƒ is ifferentiable (as a erivative) at. If ƒ eists at ever point in te omain of ƒ, we call ƒ ifferentiable. If we write z +, ten z - an approaces if an onl if z approaces.

Calculating Derivatives from te Definition Te process of calculating a erivative is calle ifferentiation. To empasize te iea tat ifferentiation is an operation performe on a function ƒs, we use te notation ƒs as anoter wa to enote te erivative ƒ s.

Some common alternative notations for te erivative are ƒ s ƒ ƒs Dsƒs D ƒs. Te smbols > an D inicate te operation of ifferentiation an are calle ifferentiation operators. We rea > as te erivative of wit respect to, an ƒ> an (>)ƒ() as te erivative of ƒ wit respect to. Te prime notations an ƒ come from notations tat Newton use for erivatives. Te > notations are similar to tose use b Leibniz. Te smbol > soul not be regare as a ratio (until we introuce te iea of ifferentials in Section.8). Be careful not to confuse te notation D(ƒ) as meaning te omain of te function ƒ instea of te erivative function ƒ. Te istinction soul be clear from te contet. To inicate te value of a erivative at a specifie number a, we use te notation ƒ sa f ` ` ƒs `. a a a For instance, in Eample b we coul write ƒ s ` `. To evaluate an epression, we sometimes use te rigt bracket ] in place of te vertical bar ƒ. Graping te Derivative We can often make a reasonable plot of te erivative of ƒs b estimating te slopes on te grap of ƒ. Tat is, we plot te points s, ƒ s in te -plane an connect tem wit a smoot curve, wic represents ƒ s. EXAMPLE Graping a Derivative Grap te erivative of te function ƒs in Figure.a. We sketc te tangents to te grap of ƒ at frequent intervals an use teir slopes to estimate te values of ƒ s at tese points. We plot te corresponing s, ƒ s pairs an connect tem wit a smoot curve as sketce in Figure.b. Solution Wat can we learn from te grap of ƒ s? At a glance we can see... were te rate of cange of ƒ is positive, negative, or zero; te roug size of te growt rate at an an its size in relation to te size of ƒ(); were te rate of cange itself is increasing or ecreasing.

Similar arguments wit one-sie limits sow tat if ƒ as a erivative from one sie (rigt or left) at c ten ƒ is continuous from tat sie at c.

Te greatest integer function :; int fails to be ifferentiable at ever integer n (Eample, Section.6). CAUTION Te converse of Teorem is false. A function nee not ave a erivative at a point were it is continuous, as we saw in Eample 5. Te Intermeiate Value Propert of Derivatives U() Not ever function can be some function s erivative, as we see from te following teorem. FIGURE.7 Te unit step function oes not ave te Intermeiate Value Propert an cannot be te erivative of a function on te real line. THEOREM If a an b are an two points in an interval on wic ƒ is ifferentiable, ten ƒ takes on ever value between ƒ sa an ƒ sb. Teorem (wic we will not prove) sas tat a function cannot be a erivative on an interval unless it as te Intermeiate Value Propert tere. For eample, te unit step function in Figure.7 cannot be te erivative of an real-value function on te real line. In Capter 5 we will see tat ever continuous function is a erivative of some function.

EXAMPLE Relating Derivatives s is te composite of te functions u an u. How are te erivatives of tese functions relate? Te function Solution, Since C: turns We ave B: u turns an u. #, we see tat u #. u A: turns FIGURE.6 Wen gear A makes turns, gear B makes u turns an gear C makes turns. B comparing circumferences or counting teet, we see tat u> (C turns one-alf turn for eac B turn) an u (B turns tree times for A s one), so >. Tus, > > s>s s>usu>., u Is it an accient tat u #? u If we tink of te erivative as a rate of cange, our intuition allows us to see tat tis relationsip is reasonable. If ƒsu canges alf as fast as u an u gs canges tree times as fast as, ten we epect to cange > times as fast as. Tis effect is muc like tat of a multiple gear train (Figure.6). EXAMPLE Te function s + is te composite of u an u +. Calculating erivatives, we see tat u # u # 6 u s + # Calculating te erivative from te epane formula, we get A B 6 +. Once again, u #. u Te erivative of te composite function ƒ(g ()) at is te erivative of ƒ at g() times te erivative of g at. Tis is known as te Cain Rule (Figure.7).
