This is a topic ties everything about (functions and graphs) together.
We're mainly concerned with two parts:
- Derivative (Differentiation)
- Integrals (Integration)
A derivative is equal to the rate of change. Most of the time we will use to present how one variable changes with another. The derivative is the gradient of a tangent line.
But from the beginning, we are going to talk about where do you want the derivative, the other way to say is I will give you a point and then tell me what's the derivative or gradient for that point.
From the beginning here are the concepts you need for calculus.
- "what is the derivative at x=n" you can understand as "what is the gradient when x=n".
- "What is the integral at x=a to x=b" you can understand as "what is the area between the function and the x-axis from x=a to x=b".
Conclusion (from the beginning )
derivative = gradient of a tangent = rate of change.
Integral = area under the function.
examples
- What is the derivative at x=5
- What is the derivative at x=9
- What is the derivative at x=2
- What is the integral from x=1 to x=4
- What is the integral from x=3 to x=10
- What is the integral from x=6 to x=10 - by the Integral from x=7 to x=10
