Algebra and Calculus 8-5 Copyright © Genetic Computer School 2007 Continuity A function f(x) is said to be continuous at x = c if lim f(x) = f(c) x c
6
Algebra and Calculus 8-6 Copyright © Genetic Computer School 2007 Intermediate – value theorem If f(x) is a continuous function on the interval [a,b] and f(a) f(b), then for every number y between f(a) and f(b) there exists a number x where x [a,b] and f(x) = y.
7
Algebra and Calculus 8-7 Copyright © Genetic Computer School 2007 Derivatives The derivative of the function f is that function, denoted by f, such that its value at any number x in the domain of f is given by f (x) = lim { f(x+ x) – f(x) }/ x x 0 if this limit exists.

Algebra and Calculus 8-9 Copyright © Genetic Computer School 2007 Fundamental theorem of calculus Suppose that f(x) is continuous function on the closed interval [a,b] and that F(x) is some antiderivative of f(x). Then:

Algebra and Calculus 8-10 Copyright © Genetic Computer School 2007 Mean - value theorem If f(x) is continuous on the closed interval [a,b] and differentiable on the open interval ]a,b[ then there exists some ]a,b[ such that d/dx f( ) = { f(b) – f(a) } / (b-a)
