4. Derivatives We have already been taught the definition of a derivative: We also know how derivatives relate to the equation of lines – Ex. Average rate of change can be found by calculating the slope of a secant line – Instantaneous rate of change can be found by calculating the slope of a tangent line

10. What can we use a derivative for! We know that dy/dx can be used to find: – Instantaneous rate of change – Slope of tangent line/curve Average rate of change – D=rt, (distance= rate * time) therefore: R=d/t – this is the average speed – Another word for speed is velocity! Velocity is speed with a directional component

11. How does velocity relate to speed and acceleration? Velocity acts as a derivative of position – Speed is the absolute value of velocity Speed=IvelocityI If your position is changed then there exists some type of speed of velocity – S’(t)=v(t) Same thing with acceleration- If you change your velocity there exists some type of acceleration – V’(t)=a(t) S’’(t)=v’(t)=a(t)

12. Example A mistress moves in a straight line according to this equation of motion: s(t) = 10t ² − 4t + 8, where t is measured in seconds and s in meters. a) What is its position at the end of 5 sec? s(5) = 10· 5² − 4· 5 + 8 = 238 m. b) What is the equation for its velocity v at any time t ? v(t) = ds/dt = 20t − 4. c) What is its velocity v at at the end of 5 seconds? v(5) = 20· 5 − 4 = 96 m/sec. d) What is the equation for its acceleration a at any time t ? a(t) = d²s/dt² = dv/dt = 20. e) What is its acceleration at the end of 5 seconds? a(5) = 20 m/sec².

13. Formulas for Position of a Projectile Another term for position is height Height of the projectile is defined by the formula: – h(t)= -½g t^2+v O t+s O g is acceleration due to gravity (32 ft/sec^s or 9.8 m/s) v o is the initial velocity s o is the initial position t is time

14. Example A ginger launches a ball vertically from the top of a building 40m high with a velocity of 55m/s – Find the equation representing position, velocity, and acceleration – What is the maximum height of the ball? – When will the ball reach the ground? – When will the ball reach its original position – How long is the ball in the air? – How far does the ball travel?

15. What’s Rectilinear Motion? It is motion on a straight line, only focusing on two directions: along the direction of motion, and opposite the direction of motion – To illustrate this, imagine a gypsy riding her stolen bike east. Her velocity is east, as well as her acceleration. As she applies the brakes, the direction of acceleration turns to west. As she slows down, the acceleration of the bike is westward

16. Terms You Need to Know t- time s(t)- position v(t)- velocity a(t)- acceleration Average Velocity- Instantaneous Velocity= derivative

17. Example A sinful Pharaoh’s position is given by the equation: – s(t)= t -6t +16t What’s the hobo’s velocity at time t? – v(t)= 2t -12t+16 What’s the hobo’s velocity at t=3 and t=5? – v(3)= -2 v(5)=6 When is the hobo resting? – v(t)=0  2t -12t+16  (t-4)(t-2)  t=4sec & 2sec When is the hobo running forward? – [0,2)U(4, )

18. Implicit Differentiation Implicit differentiation Consider the following: – x² + y² = r² This is the equation of a circle with radius r. Let us calculate dy dx To do that, we could solve for y and then take the derivative. But rather than do that, we will take the derivative of each term. We will assume that y is a function of x, and we will apply the chain rule. Then we will solve for dy dx d dx x² + d dx y² = d dx r² 2x + 2y dy dx = 0 dy dx = − x y This is called implicit differentiation. y is implicitly a function of x. The result generally contains both x and y.

19. Example In Optimus Prime’s circle, x² + y² = 25, – a) what is the y-coordinate when x = −3? y = 4 or −4. For,(−3)² + (±4)² = 5² – b) What is the slope of the tangent to the circle at (−3, 4)? 3 4. For, the derivative is − x y – c) What is the slope of the tangent to the circle at (−3, −4)? − 3 4

20. The Derivative of an Inverse Function When we have a function y = f(x) -- for example y=x then we can often solve for x. In this case, x= On exchanging the variables, we have y= y= is called the inverse function of y = x²

21. Inverse Function con’t f(x) = x² g(x) = And let us call f the direct function and g the inverse function. The formal relationship between f and g is the following: » f( g(x)) = g( f(x)) = x. Here are other pairs of direct and inverse functions: f(x) = sin x g(x) = arcsin x f(x) = a x g(x) = log a x f(x) = x 3 g(x) = Now, when we know the derivative of the direct function f, then from it we can determine the derivative of g. Thus, let g(x) be the inverse of f(x). Then f(g(x) )= x. Now take the derivative with respect to x: This implies that:

22. Example Let f(x) = x², and g(x)= Then f( g) = g² This means that:
