finite math and applied calculus

A function f(x) is said to be differentiable at a point 'a' if (i) both Rf '(a) and Lf '(a) exists and finite. (ii) Rf '(a) = Lf '(..

Differential calculus can be considered as mathematics of motion, growth and change where there is a motion, growth, change. Whenever there is variable forces producing acceleration, differential calculus is the right mathematics to apply..

Let us began this chapter with the following statement: Often a physician may want to test how small changes in dosage can affect the body's response to a particular drug. An economist may want to study how investment changes with variation in interest rates. How the velocity of a heavy meteorite e..

For a particular Critical value x = a, find f " ' (a) (i) If f ''(a) < 0 then f (x) has a local maxima at x = a and f (a) is the maximum value. (ii) If f ''(a) > 0 then f (x) has a local minima at x = a and f (a) is the minimum value. (iii) If f ''(a) = 0 or , the test fails and the first d..

The fundamental theorem of calculus is the statement that the two central operations of calculus, differentiation and integration, are inverse operations: if a continuous function is first integrated and then differentiated, the original function is retrieve..

Let f(x) be a continuous function on the closed interval [a, b]. Let the area function A(x) be defined by th..

Let f(x) be a continuous function defined on an interval [a,b]. between the limits a and b. This statement is also known as 'fundamental theorem of calculus'. We call b, the upper limit of x and a, the lower limit. If in place of F(x) we take F(x)+c as the value of the integral, we have =..

In calculus, and more generally in mathematical analysis, integration by parts is a rule that transforms the integral of products of functions into other, possibly simpler, integrals. The rule arises from the product rule of differentiation. The formula for Integrati..

Introduction - The derivative, measures the rate at which the dependent variable changes with respect to the independent variable. It is one of the most important ideas in Calculus. The differentiation of functions are widely used in science, economics, medicine and computer scienc..
