M113 (Calculus) Formulas

This document provides formulas and concepts related to calculus, including: 1) It defines functions as equations that map each input to exactly one output, and discusses representing functions with tables, graphs, and formulas. 2) It covers limits, continuity, derivatives, differentiation rules, and implicit differentiation. Derivatives represent the slope of the tangent line to a function at a point. 3) Implicit differentiation is used to find derivatives when a function is defined implicitly by an equation rather than explicitly, by differentiating both sides with respect to x.

M113 (CALCULUS) FORMULAS

FUNCTIONS & RELATIONS

Functions

 are equations for which any INPUT (x) that can be put into the equation will produce exactly one
OUTPUT (y) out of the equation. It is represented as:

f(x)=y; a functional notation/equation where x=independent and y=dependent

y=f(x); an equation where y=independent and x=dependent

 A function f consists of a set of inputs, a set of outputs, and a rule for assigning each input to
exactly one output. The set of inputs is called the domain of the function. The set of outputs is
called the range of the function.
Representing Functions

 Typically, a function is represented using one or more of the following tools:

 A table
 A graph
 A formula

 We can identify a function in each form, but we can also use them together. For instance, we
can plot on a graph the values from a table or create a table from a formula.

RULE: VERTICAL LINE TEST


 Given a function f, every vertical line that may be drawn intersects the graph of f no more than
once. If any vertical line intersects a set of points more than once, the set of points does not
represent a function.
Combining Functions with Mathematical Operators
 To combine functions using mathematical operators, we simply write the functions with the
operator and simplify. Given two functions f and g, we can define four new functions:
Function Composition

 Consider the function f with domain A and range B, and the function g with domain D and


range E. If B is a subset of D, then the composite function (g∘f)(x) is the function with
domain A such that

(g∘f)(x)=g(f(x)).
Symmetry of Functions
 If f(x)=f(−x) for all x in the domain of f, then f is an even function. An even function is symmetric
about the y-axis.
 If f(−x)=−f(x) for all xx in the domain of f, then f is an odd function. An odd function is symmetric
about the origin.

Trigonometric Identities
Relations

 are not functions when different y’s are paired with the same x.
 NOTE: All functions are relations, but all relations are not functions.

Limits

 If f(x) becomes arbitrarily close to a unique number L as x approaches c from either side, then
the limit of f(x) as x approaches c is L.

lim f ( x )=L
x →c
One-Sided Limits
Infinite Limits
Limit Laws
Continuity

 In graphs, it means that the curve is unbroken and uninterrupted. You can move along the
curve, corresponding to several points in the graph, without lifting your pen.
 3 Conditions:
1. lim f ( a)∃
x→ a

2. lim
x→ a
f (x )∃

3. lim f ( x )=f (a)


x→ a
Discontinuity

 In graphs, it means that the curve is broken and interrupted. You cannot move along the curve,
corresponding to several points in the graph, with lifting your pen.
Continuity over an Interval
Derivative

 the slope of the tangent line to a function at a point, calculated by taking the limit of the
difference quotient, is the derivative.

Differentiation

 the process of getting the derivative.

Steps of Derivative Using the Definition

1. Add the increments Δy and Δx to y=f(x).


2. Transpose f(x) to the right side.
3. Divide both side by Δx to get Δy/Δx.
4. Evaluate the limit as x approaches 0.

Differentiation Rules
Implicit vs. Explicit

 A function can be explicit or implicit:

 Explicit: "y = some function of x". When we know x we can calculate y directly.


 Implicit: "some function of y and x equals something else". Knowing x does not lead directly to
y.

Implicit Differentiation

 is a technique for computing dy/dx for a function defined by an equation, accomplished by


differentiating both sides of the equation (remembering to treat the variable y as a function)
and solving for dy/dx.

How to do Implicit Differentiation

1. Differentiate with respect to x.


2. Collect all the dy/dx on one side.
3. Solve for dy/dx.
