slope
|
rise/run
change in y/change in x y2 - y1/ x2 -x1 |
|
linear function
|
y=mx+b
m is the slope b is the vertical intercept |
|
exponential function
|
P=Poa^t
Po = initial quantity a = the factor by which P changes when t increases by 1 |
|
continuous exponential function
|
P=Poe^kt
|
|
inverse function
|
a function has an inverse if its graph intersects any horizontal line at most once (horizontal line test)
graph is a reflection about the y=x line |
|
log10x=c
|
10^c=x
|
|
ln x = c
|
e^c = x
|
|
Properties of Natural Logs
|
ln(AB) = lnA + ln B
ln(A/B) = ln A - ln B ln(A^p) = p ln A ln e^x = x e^ln x = x ln 1 = o ln e = 1 |
|
f(t) = A sin (Bt)
|
abs A = amplitude
2`/ abs B = period (in tangent period = `/abs B) |
|
inverse of a trig function
|
arc trig function
|
|
continuous function
|
no breaks, jumps or zeros
(don't pick up pencil) |
|
Intermediate Value Theorem
|
f is continous on closed interval A,B. If k is any number between f(a) and f(b), then there is at least one number c in A,B such that
f(c)=k |
|
average velocity
|
change in position/change in time
s(b) - s(a) / b - a |
|
instanteous velocity
|
1) at t=a
lim h->0 s(a+h) - s(a)/ h 2)the average velocity over an interval as the inverval shrinks around a 3) slope of the curve at a point(tangent line) |
|
Properties of Limits
|
lim k =k
lim x->c x = c |
|
limits with infinity
|
1)limit of 3x = infinity when x approaches infinity
2) limit of 1/3x = o when x approaches infinity 3) limit of 3x/4x = 3/4 when x approaches infinity |
|
average rate of change of f over the interval from a to a+h
|
f(a+h) - f(a)/h
(general formula while equation with s was specifically for height) |
|
derivative
|
instanteous rate of change
lim h->0 f(a+h) - f(a)/ h slope of the tangent line |
|
rules of derivatives
|
f'>0, f increasing
f'<0, f decreasing f(x) = k, f'(x) = 0 |
|
power rule
|
f(x)=x^n, then f'(x) = nx^n-1
|
|
interpretations of the derivative
|
dy/dx
|
|
second derivative
|
f">0, f' increasing, f concave up
f"<0, f' decreasing, f concave down |

|
Product Rule
|

|
|
Quotient Rule
|
(f/g)' = f'g -fg'/g^2
|
|
Chain Rule
|
d/dx(f(g(x)) = f'(g(x))*g'(x)
