DEFINITION 2.2

Slide 3
2.2 THE DERIVATIVE

DEFINITION 2.2
The derivative of the function f is the function f’ given by

The domain of f is the set of all x’s for which this limit
exists.

The process of computing a derivative is called


differentiation. Further, f is differentiable on an open
interval I if it is differentiable at every point in I .

Slide 4
2.2 THE DERIVATIVE

EXAMPLE 2.5 Sketching the Graph of f’ Given the


Graph of f
Given the graph of f in the
figure, sketch a plausible
graph of f’.

Keep in mind that the value


of the derivative function at
a point is the slope of the
tangent line at that point.

2.2 THE DERIVATIVE

Alternative Derivative Notations


If we write y = f (x), the following are all alternatives for
denoting the derivative:

The expression

is called a differential operator and tells us to take the


derivative of whatever expression follows.

Slide 7
2.2 THE DERIVATIVE

THEOREM 2.1
If f is differentiable at x = a, then f is continuous at x = a.

Note that Theorem 2.1 says that if a function is not


continuous at a point, then it cannot have a derivative at
that point.

It also turns out that functions are not differentiable at


any point where their graph has a “sharp” corner, as is
the case for f (x) = |x| at x = 0.

Higher Order Derivatives
We can compute the derivative of a derivative.

It turns out that such higher order derivatives have


important applications.
We can compute the derivative of f’, called the second
derivative of f and written f’’. We can then compute
the derivative of f’’, called the third derivative of f,
written f’’’.

notice that it’s simpler to first rewrite the function.)
