Document Summary

A derivative is the limit of another function. From a physical point of view, how fast the function, f(x), is changing is measured by the derivative, f1(x). There are two main equations that essentially find the same outcome but are used for different matters: when given a number- Lim f(x)-f(a) (cid:454) a (cid:454)-a: when given a function- Ex: please find the derivative of f(x)= 1 by definition. x (*note: if the question says, (cid:862)(cid:271)(cid:455) defi(cid:374)itio(cid:374)(cid:863), (cid:455)ou (cid:373)ust solve the derivative this way, not by using other derivative rules) *side: in this step, cross multiply 1/x+h and 1/x. In this step, do not forget to distribute the into the h (cid:1004) x (x+h) h on the top line. The x(cid:859)s o(cid:374) the top (cid:272)a(cid:374)(cid:272)el ea(cid:272)h other out h (cid:1004) x (x+h) h. The h from the top and the h from the bottom can cancel out. Now distribute the x on the bottom line and sub in the value 0.
