Definition of Derivative (Chapter 2)

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
Definition: The Intermediate Value Theorem (IVT)   show
🗑
Definition: Average Rate of Change   show
🗑
show sin (x + h) = sin(x)cos(h) + sin(h)cos(x)  
🗑
Sum formula for cosine   show
🗑
show "Global Derivative" Lim h–>0 [ f (x+h) – f(x) ] / h  
🗑
What does it mean to take the derivative of a function?   show
🗑
show Displacement or Position Function: s(t), Velocity: s '(t) = v(t), Acceleration: s '' (t) = v ' (t) = a(t).  
🗑
show 1) Must be in "Ax + By = C" form 2) where A, B, & C are integers 3) and "A" must be a positive value m = –A / B or first number over the second and "change the sign".  
🗑
show Slope - y–intercept: y = mx + b or y = (∆y / ∆x) x + b. Standard: Ax + By = C Point–Slope: (y–k) = m (x–h)  
🗑
show "Disposable Derivative". Lim x–>c [ f (x) – f(c) ] / (x – c)  
🗑
show States that if a function f is continuous on the closed interval [a,b], and differentiable on the open interval (a,b), then there exists at least point c in the interval (a,b) such that f'(c) is equal to the average rate of change over [a,b].  
🗑
Average VS Instantaneous Rates of Change   show
🗑
Estimating the Instantaneous Rate of Change   show
🗑
show When being asked about instantaneous velocity, this is a translation for instantaneous rate of change of displacement. S'(t) = v(t). This is a direct substitution into the velocity function. DO NOT MOVE a level!  
🗑
show When being asked about instantaneous acceleration, this is a translation for instantaneous rate of change of velocity. S''(t) = v'(t) = a(t). This is a direct substitution into the acceleration function.  
🗑
Understanding the terminology for "Instantaneous rate of change"   show
🗑
Understanding the terminology for "Average velocity"   show
🗑
Understanding the terminology for "Average acceleration"   show
🗑
Understanding the terminology for "Average rate of change"   show
🗑
show From the perspective of displacement S(t), max/min is found when S'(t) = v(t) = 0. One MUST MOVE DOWN a level and set equal to zero. Ex. Any function h''(x), One MUST MOVE DOWN a level and set equal to zero. So h'''(x)=0  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
