Limits Let a R. Let L R. We say lim x a f(x) = L if: There exists a real number t > 0 such that {x R : 0 < x a < t} D(f). For all real numbers ɛ > 0, there exists a real number δ > 0 such that: For all x R, if 0 < x a < δ, then f(x) L < ɛ. Limit Properties If f(x) = k, then for every a R, lim x a f(x) = k. If f(x) = x, then for every a R, lim x a f(x) = f(a). If lim x a f(x) exists an is a real number, an lim x a g(x) exists an is a real number, then lim x a (f + g)(x) = lim x a f(x) + lim x a g(x). If lim x a f(x) exists an is a real number, an lim x a g(x) exists an is a real number, then lim x a (f g)(x) = lim x a f(x) lim x a g(x). If lim x a f(x) exists an is a real number, an lim x a g(x) exists an is a real number, then lim x a (f g)(x) = (lim x a f(x))(lim x a g(x)). If lim x a f(x) exists an is a real number, an lim x a g(x) exists an is a real number not equal to zero, then lim x a (f/g)(x) = limx a f(x) lim x a g(x)).

We say that lim x f(x) = L if: There exists a number t R such that (, t) = x R : x < t D(f). For all ɛ > 0, there exists a real number R such that if x < R, then f(x) L < ɛ.

Local Mininimums an Maximums Let f be a function. Let c D(f). We say that c is a local maximum of f if there exists some t > 0 such that for all x D(f), if x c < t, then f(x) f(c). We say that c is a local minimum of f if there exists some t > 0 such that for all x D(f), if x c < t, then f(x) f(c). Global an Local Maximums an Minimums Let f be a function. Let c D(f). If c is a global minimum for f, then c is a local minimum for f. If c is a global maximum for f, then c is a local maximum for f.

Newton s Metho Newton s Metho is an applie technique to approximate a solution, x, to satisfy f(x) = 0, where f is function which is ifferentiable for some interval.

Then, for any value n, compute x n+1 : x n+1 = x n f(xn) f (x n) If the initial chosen value x 1 is appropriate, then as n increases, x n will approach the root of f(x). Rolle s Theorem Let [a, b] be an interval. Let f be a function continuous on [a, b] an ifferentiable on (a, b).

Then there exists c (a, b) such that f(b) f(a) = f (c)(b a) Generalize Mean Value Theorem Let [a, b] be an interval. Let f an g be functions continuous on [a, b] an ifferentiable on (a, b). Then there exists c (a, b) such that f (c)(g(b) g(a) = g (c)(f(b) f(a). 6
Higher Derivatives Definition: The n t h erivative of f is equal to f (n). ie. f = f (3) Taylor s Theorem Let [a, b] be an interval. let f be a function that is n times ifferentiable on [a, b].

Collary of Taylor s Theorem Let [a, b] be an interval, an let f be a function that is n times ifferentiable on [a, b], with f (n) continuous on [a, b]. Let c (a, b). Suppose that for all x [a, b], f (n) (x) M. Then for all x [a, b], f(x) n 1 f (k) c k=0 We can also say that f(x) n 1 k=0 k! (x c) k M n! x c n. f (k) c k! (x c) k = O( x c n ) as x c. Lanau s Big O Notation Let f an g be functions, an let c R. We say that f(x) = O(g(x)) as x c if there exists M > 0 an δ > 0 such that if x c < δ, then f(x) M g(x).

L Hopital s Rule for 0 0 Let (a, b) be an interval. Let f an g be functions ifferentiable on (a, b). Suppose that lim x a + f(x) = 0, lim x a + g(x) = 0, an g (x) 0 for all x (a, b). Then, if lim f (x) x a + g (x) = L, lim x a f(x) + g(x) = L. 8
Similarly, Suppose that lim x a f(x) = 0, lim x a g(x) = 0, an g (x) 0 for all x (a, b). Then, if lim f (x) x a g (x) = L, lim x a f(x) g(x) = L. L Hopital s Rule for 0 0 with Limits to Infinity Let f an g be functions. Suppose that lim x f(x) = 0 an lim x g(x) = 0. Suppose also that there exists R R such that f an g are ifferentiable on (R, ), an g (x) 0 for all x (R, ). f Then, for all x (R, ), if lim (x) x g (x) = L, then lim x f(x) g(x) = L. L Hopital s Rule for Let f an g be functions efine on (a, b). Suppose that f an g are ifferentiable on (a, b). Suppose that g (x) 0 for any x (a, b). Suppose that lim x a + f(x) = or lim x a + f(x) =. Suppose that lim x a + g(x) = or lim x a + g(x) =. Then, if lim f (x) x a + g (x) = L, then lim x a f(x) + g(x) = L. The two-sie version of this theorem is also true (see theorem for 0 0 ). Continous Differentiability Let (a, b) be an interval. Let c (a, b). Let f be a function that is continuous on (a, b), an ifferentiable on every points x (a, b) except for possibly at x = c. Suppose that lim x c f (x) = L for some L R. Then, f is ifferentiable at c, an f (c) = L. Anti-Derivatives Let (a, b) be an interval that may be finite or infinite. Let f be a function efine on (a, b). We call a function F an anti-erivative of f on (a, b) if for all x (a, b), F (x) = f(x). Anti-Derivatives of the Same Function on the Same Interval If F (x) is an anti-erivative of f(x) on (a, b), then so is F (x) + c for any constant c. Conversely, if F 1 (x) an F 2 (x) are both anti-erivatives of f on (a, b), then F 1 (x) F 2 (x) is a constant function. 9
Common/Useful Anti-Derivatives On (0, ), the anti-erivative of 1 x is log x. On R: The anti-erivative of e x is e x. The anti-erivative of e cx is 1 c ecx. The anti-erivative of sin x is cos x. The anti-erivative of cos x is sin x. The anti-erivative of P (x) = n k=0 a kx k is n 1 k=0 k+1 a kx k+1. Anti-Derivative Notation If F is the anti-erivative of f, then we write f(x)x = F (x) + c, an F (x) is also calle the inefinite integral of f. First Orer Differential Equations A first orer ifferential equation is an equation of the form y (x) = f(x, y(x)). Here, y(x) is a function of one variable, an f(x, y) is a function of two variables. We can also write this as y = f(x, y). In practice, we are given the function f, an we nee to fin y. Initial Value Problems An initial value problem is a problem in the form: y (x) = f(x, y(x) y (x 0 ) = c 0 f(x, y) is a function we are given, x 0 an c 0 are given real numbers, an y(x) is a function for which to be solve. If f is continuous an the erivative of f exists an is continuous, then we can always solve an initial value problem an there is only one solution (Recall: f is a function of two variables, so these terms have not been efine). First Orer Linear Differential Equations If P (x) an Q(x) are functions that are continuous on the interval (a, b), then a ifferential equation of the form y (x) + P (x)y(x) = Q(x) is calle a first orer linear ifferential equation. For a first orer linear ifferential equation, f(x, y(x)) is of the form f(x, y) = Q(x) P (x). First Orer Linear Initial Value Problems If P (x) an Q(x) are functions that are continuous on (a, b), then: 10
y (x) + P (x)y(x) = Q(x) y(x 0 ) = c 0 is calle a first orer linear initial value problem. This initial value problem has a unique solution y(x) = c 0 e A(x) + e A(x) B(x), where A(x) is the anti-erivative of P (x) with A(x 0 ) = 0, an B(x) is the anti-erivative of e A(x) Q(x), with B(x 0 ) = 0. Homogeneous First Orer Linear Differential Equations If P (x) is a continuous (a, b), then an equation of the form y (x) + P (x)y(x) = 0 is a homogeneous first orer linear ifferential equation. If the solution y(x) is never equal to zero, then we can ivie by y(x) to obtain y (x) = P (x) (i.e. x log y(x) = P (x)). Also, if P (x) is continuous, then P (x) has an anti-erivative (to be prove in MATH 121). y(x) Homogeneous First Orer Linear Initial Value Problems If P (x) is continuous on the interval (a, b), then the initial value problem: y (x) + P (x)y(x) = 0 y(x 0 ) = c 0 has a unique solution, given by y(x) = c 0 e A(x), where A(x) is the unique anti-erivative of P (x) that satisfies A(x 0 ) = 0. We write A(x) = x x 0 P (z)z. Maximum Intervals of Existence The maximum interval of existence for an initial value problem is the largest open interval containing x 0 for which there exists a solution to the above ifferential equation. Secon Orer Differential Equations A secon orer ifferential equation is an equation of the form y (x) = f(x, y(x), y (x)). A linear secon orer ifferential equation is an equation of the form y (x)+p (x)y (x)+q(x)y(x) = R(x). If R(x) = 0, then this is calle a homogeneous equation. If P (x) an Q(x) are also constants, i.e. P (x) = p an Q(x) = q, then we get y (x)+py (x)+qy(x) = 0, where p, q R. This is calle a homogeneous linear secon orer ifferential equation with constant coeffecients. 11
Secon Orer Initial Value Problems If f(x, y, z) is continuous, an the erivative of f with respect to y is continuous, an the erivative with respect to z is continuous, then the initial value problem y (x) = f(x, y(x), y (x)) y(x 0 ) = c 0 y (x 0 ) = c 1 has a unique solution on some maximum interval of existence that contains x 0. Multiple Solutions to Homogeneous Linear Secon Orer Differential Equation with Constant Coeffecients For a homogeneous linear secon orer ifferential equation with constant coeffecients, if y 1 (x) an y 2 (x) are solutions, then y(x) = y 1 (x) + y 2 (x) is also a solution. Also, if y(x) is a solution, then Ay(x) is a solution for all A R. Imaginary Numbers i is efine to be a solution to the equation x 2 + 1 = 0, i.e. i 2 = 1 (an ( i) 2 = 1). Any number of the form bi, where b R, is calle an imaginary number. If a, b R, then any number of the form a + bi is calle a complex number. If z = a + bi is a complex number, we efine Re(z) = a an Im(z) = b, which are the real an imaginary parts of z. If z an w are complex numbers, then z w = z w, so i i = i 2 = 1 = 1, so it must be the case that i = 1. Euler s Formula If x R, then e ix = cos(x) + i sin(x). This is a more general form of Euler s ientity (e iπ + 1 = 0). Homework Theorems & Useful Definitions Set Theorems (Homework #1) Suppose that S T =. Then, S \ T = S an T \ S = T. Suppose that S T.
