The Derivative of a Function

Definition 2.1 (Derivative of a Function)


If f is a function of an independent variable, say x, then the derivative of
f at x0 , denoted by f 0 (x0 ), is given by

f (x0 + h) − f (x0 )
f 0 (x0 ) = lim ,
h→0 h
if this limit exists. If f 0 (x0 ) exists, then f is said to be differentiable at x0 .
The function f is said to be differentiable if it is differentiable at each
point in the domain of f .

Implicit Differentiation
If a function f is given by f = {(x, y)| y = 3x2 + 2}, then we say that the
equation y = 3x2 + 2 defines the function f explicitly. However, not all
relations can be defined in such a manner. For instance, consider the
equation x2 − y 2 = 16. This given equation does not describe a function
√ −3) are in the locus). Now, the function g defined by
((5, 3) and (5,
y = g(x) = x2 − 16 satisfies x2 − y 2 = 16, that is x2 − [g(x)]2 = 16.
Also, the function h defined by
p
y = h(x) = − x2 − 16

satisfies x2 − y 2 = 16, that is, x2 − [h(x)]2 = 16. In this case, we say that
function g (or the function h) is defined implicitly by the equation
x2 − y 2 = 16. The process of finding the derivative of a function that is
defined implicitly is called implicit differentiation.

Higher-Order Derivatives

If the function f is differentiable, then its derivative f 0 is called the first


derivative of f . If the function f 0 is differentiable, then the derivative of f 0
is called the second derivative of f . It is denoted by f 00 (read as “f double
prime”). Similarly, the third derivative of f , is defined as the derivative of
f 00 , provided that f 00 exists. The third derivative of f is denoted by
f 000 (read as “f triple prime”). The nth derivative of the function f ,
denoted by f (n) , is defined as the derivative of the (n − 1)st derivative of
f , provided the latter exists.

Definition 2.22 (Monotonic Functions)


A function f defined on an interval is said to be (strictly) increasing on
that interval if and only if f (x1 ) < f (x2 ) whenever x1 < x2 , where x1 and
x2 are any numbers in the interval. A function f defined on an interval is
said to be (strictly) decreasing on that interval if and only if
f (x1 ) > f (x2 ) whenever x1 < x2 where x1 and x2 are any numbers in the
interval. If a function is either increasing or decreasing on an interval, then
it is said to be monotonic on the interval.

Concavity and the Second Derivative Test
Theorem 2.27 (Second Derivative Test for Concavity)
Let f be a function such that f 00 (x) exists for every x in some open
interval I.
1 If f 00 (x) > 0 for all x on I, then the graph of f is concave upward on
I.
2 If f 00 (x) < 0 for all x on I, then the graph of f is concave downward
on I.

Theorem 2.28 (Second Derivative Test for Relative Extrema)


Suppose that f 00 exists on I and suppose x0 ∈ I is a critical value of f .
1 If f 00 (x0 ) > 0, then x0 corresponds to a relative minimum value of f .
2 If f 00 (x0 ) < 0, then x0 corresponds to a relative maximum value of f .

Concavity and the Second Derivative Test

Definition 2.29 (Points of Inflection)


A point (x0 , f (x0 )) is a point of inflection of the graph of the function f if
the graph has a tangent line there, and if there exists an open interval I
containing x0 such that if x is in I, then either
1 f 00 (x) < 0 if x < x0 , and f 00 (x) > 0 if x > x0 , or
2 f 00 (x) > 0 if x < x0 , and f 00 (x) < 0 if x > x0 .

Theorem 2.30
If the function f is differentiable on some open interval containing x0 , and
if (x0 , f (x0 )) is a point of inflection of the graph of f , then if f 00 (x0 )
exists, f 00 (x0 ) = 0.
