CONTINUITY AND DIFFERENTIABILITY OF A FUNCTION
I. OBJECTIVE: Determine the relationship between differentiability and continuity of a

function.
II.LEARNING ACTIVITY:
Recall that, a function is differentiable if and only if its derivative exists. On the other
hand, a function is continuous if it satisfies the different conditions on continuity as discussed
in our previous LAS.
Example 1.
Identify whether the function (𝑥) = 3𝑥 − 1 is differentiable and continuous.
Solution:
As you can see (𝑥) = 3𝑥 − 1 is differentiable since its derivative exists. Next, let us
see if the function is continuous. Below is the graph of f(𝑥) = 3𝑥 − 1.
Based on the graph, we can say that the function is continuous since it has no gaps
or holes.
In this example, we proved that the polynomial function f(𝑥) = 3𝑥 − 1 is differentiable
and continuous. Will this be true for all polynomial functions?
Example 2. Determine whether the function (𝑥) = 𝑥 2 − 4𝑥 + 3 is differentiable and continuous

at (1, 5).
Solution:
First let us differentiate (𝑥) = 𝑥2 − 4𝑥 + 3.
Differentiating the function at the point (1, 5) means evaluating 𝑓′(1) thus
Since the derivative of (𝑥) = 𝑥2 − 4𝑥 + 3 exist, then it is differentiable.
Remember the following:
1. Based on the previous lesson, we say that a function is continuous if it satisfies the
following conditions:
a. 𝑓(𝑎) exists
b. lim 𝑓(𝑥) exists
𝑥→𝑎
c. (𝑎) = lim (𝑥)

𝑥→𝑎
2. If a function is differentiable at 𝒙 = 𝒂, then function of 𝒇(𝒙) is continuous 𝒙 = 𝒂.

3. If a function 𝒇(𝒙) is not differentiable at 𝒙 = 𝒂 then it may or may not be continuous at
III.PRACTICE EXERCISES:
Determine if the given function is continuous and differentiable at the indicated values of x.
1.f (𝑥) = 3𝑥 + 10
A. x = 5 B. 𝑥 = 0
2. f(𝑥) = 𝑥2 − 5𝑥 + 6
A. x= 1 B. 𝑥 = −3
4 x +6
3. f (𝑥) =
9−3 x
A. x = -1 B. x = 0 C. x = 3
IV. EVALUATION:
Read and analyze each of the following statements. Identify whether it is SOMETIMES
TRUE, ALWAYS TRUE or NEVER TRUE.
1. If a function is differentiable at a point, then it is continuous at the same point.
2. If a function is continuous at a point, then it is differentiable at the same point.
1. If a function is differentiable at a point, then it is not continuous at the same point.
2. If a function is not differentiable at a point, then it is continuous at the same point.
3. If a function is not differentiable at a point, then it is not continuous at the same point.

RULES ON DIFFERENTIATION
I. OBJECTIVE:
Apply the differentiation rules in computing the derivative of an algebraic,
exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric functions and inverse trigonometric functions.
II. LEARNING ACTIVITY:
Differential calculus is the process of finding the exact derivative directly from a
formula of the function without using graphical methods. In practice, we use some rules that
tell us how to find the derivative of almost any function. In this lesson, we will introduce
these rules.
RULE 1. The Derivative of a Constant

If (𝑥) = 𝑐 where c is a constant then 𝑓′(𝑥) = 0. The derivative of a constant is equal to
zero.
Examples:
1, If (𝑥) = 10, then 𝑓′(𝑥) = 0
2. If h(𝑥) = 5 π , then h′(𝑥) = 0
RULE 2. The Power Rule.
If (𝑥) = , where n ∈ N, then 𝑓′(𝑥) = nxn-1
Examples:
1, If (𝑥) = x3, then 𝑓′(𝑥) = 3x3-1 = 3x2
1
2. Find g′(𝑥), where g(𝑥) =
x3
−2
g′(𝑥) = (-2)x-2-1 = -2x-3 or
x3
1
3. If h(x) = √ x , then we can write h(x) = x 2
1
1 2−1 1
−1
2
1
Therefore: h’(x) = x = x or
2 2 2√ x
RULE 3. The Constant Multiple Rule

If (𝑥) = k h(x) where k is a constant, then ′(𝑥) = k h’(x)
Examples: Find the derivatives of the following functions:
3 13
a. 𝑓(𝑥) = 5 x 4 b. g(𝑥) = √x c. h(x) = -√ 3 x
3
Solutions:
3 −1
3 4 −1 15 4
a. then ′(𝑥) = 5. x = x
4 4

1 3 1 1 1 −1 1 −2
b. g(𝑥)¿ x g’(𝑥)¿ . x 3 = x 3
3 3 3 9
c. h’(x) = −√ 3 x1=1 = - √ 3
RULE 4. The Sum/Difference Rule

If (𝑥) = g(𝑥) ± h(x) where g and h are differentiable functions, then
𝑓 ′(𝑥) = g’(𝑥) ±h’(x)
Examples: Using the same problems in rule number 3 differentiate the ff:
a. 𝑓(𝑥) ± g(𝑥) b. g(𝑥) ± h(x) c. 𝑓(𝑥) ± h(x)
Solutions:
−1 −2 −2 −1
15 ± 1x
4 3 1 3 15 4
a. x b. x ± - √3 c. x ± - √3
4 9 9 4
RULE 5. The Product Rule

If f and g are differentiable functions, then:
dx f(x)g(x) = f(x)g’(x) + g(x)f’(x)
Example: Find f’(x) if f(x) = (3x2 - 4)(x2 – 3x)
Solution:
f’(x) = (3x2 -4)dx(x2 – 3x) + (x2 – 3x)dx(3x2 - 4)
= (3x2 -4)(2x – 3) + (x2 – 3x)(6x)
= 6x3 – 9x2 – 8x + 12 + 6x3 – 18x2
= 12x3 -27x2 – 8x + 12
RULE 6. The Quotient Rule
Let f(x) and g(x) be two differentiable functions with g(x) ≠ 0. Then:
f (x ) g ( x ) f ' ( x ) −f ( x ) g ' ( x)
Dx =
g ( x) g ( x)2
Example:
3 x +5
Let h(x) = . Compute for h’(x)
x2 + 4
Solution: f(x) = 3x + 5 and g(x) = x2 + 4 and f’(x) = 3 and g’(x) = 2x
'
g ( x ) f ( x ) −f ( x ) g ' ( x)
Then, h(x) = 2
g(x)
(x ¿¿ 2+4) ( 3 )−(3 x+ 5)(2 x)

(x 2+ 4)2
3 x 2 +12−6 x 2 +10 x
= 2
( x 2+ 4 )
12−10 x−3 x2
= 2
( x2 + 4 )
RULE 7. The Derivative of Trigonometric Function
1. Dx(sin x) = cos x 4. Dx(cot x) = -cscx2
2. Dx(cos x) = -sin x 5. Dx(sec x) = sec x tan x
3. Dx(tan x) = sec2x 6. Dx(csc x) = -csc x cot x
Example:
Differentiate the following functions:
1. f(x) = sec x + 3 csc x 2. g(x) = x2sin x – 3x cos x + 5 sin x
Solutions:
1. If f(x) = sec x + 3 csc x, then
f’(x) = sec x tan x + 3(-csc x cot x) = sec x tan x – 3 csc x cot x
2. If g(x)= x2sin x – 3x cos x + 5 sin x, then
g’(x) = (x2)(cos x) + (sin x)(2x) - 3 (x)(-sin x) + (cos x)(3) + 5 cos x
= x2 cos x + 2x sin x + 3x sin x – 3 cos x + 5 cos x
= x2 cos x + 5x sin x + 2 cos x
RULE 8. The Derivative of an Exponential Function

If f(x) = ex , then f’(x) = ex
Example: Find f’(x) if f(x) = 3ex
Solution: f’(x) = 3 Dx (ex) = 3ex
III. PRACTICE EXERCISES:

Solve for the derivatives of the following functions applying the differentiation rules:
1. f(x) = 25
2. f(x) = x3
2
3. f(x) = ¿ 4 x 3
4. f(x) = 3x2 - 6√ x + 2
5. f(x) = 3x sin x
x 2−1
6. f(x) =
2 x 2 +3 x
7. Find g’(x) if g(x) = 2x3 ex – 4x ex + ex

xe x
8. Find f’(x) if f(x) =
x2 +2 e x
9. f(x) = cot x + 2 tanx sec x
IV. EVALUATION:

functions:
1. f(x) = 2021
2. f(x) = x5

3.f(x) = ¿ 6 x 3
4.f(x) = 5x2 - 7√ x + 8
5.f(x) = 8x cos x
