CHAPTER 2 DIFFERENTIATION

2.1 FIRST ORDER DIFFERENTIATION

What is Differentiation?

Differentiation is all about finding rates of change of one quantity compared to another. We need differentiation when the rate of change is not constant.

Notation for the Derivative

IMPORTANT: The derivative (also called differentiation) can be written in several ways. This can cause some confusion when we first learn about differentiation.

The following are equivalent ways of writing the first derivative of y = f(x):

2.1.1 RULES OF DIFFERENTIATION

A. Derivative of Power Function

So

Examples:

1. Find the derivative of y = -7x6

Note: We can do this in one step:

1


We can write: OR y' = -42x5

2.1.2 THE DERIVATIVE OF SUMMATION AND SUBSTRACTION

If f ( x ) and g ( x ) are differentiable functions, the derivative of

and

Examples:

1. Find the derivative of y = 3x5 - 1

y = 3x5 − 1

Now,

And since we can write:

So,

2. Find the derivative of

2.1.3 THE DERIVATIVES OF COMPOSITE FUNCTION

Chain Rule

If , where, u is a function of x, so:

This means we need to

1. Recognise u (always choose the inner-most expression, usually the part inside brackets, or under the square root sign).

2. Then we need to re-express y in terms of u. 3. Then we differentiate y (with respect to u), then we re-express everything in

terms of x.

4. The next step is to find .

7


5. Then we multiply and .

Example 1:

Differentiate each the following function with respect to x.

i. y = (x2+ 3)5

In this case, we let u = x2 + 3 and then y = u5.

We see that:

u is a function of x and y is a function of u.

For the chain rule, we firstly need to find and .

So

ii.

In this case, we let u = 4x2 − x and then .

Once again,

u is a function of x and y is a function of u.

Using the chain rule, we firstly need to find:

and

8


So

The Extended Power Rule

An extension of the chain rule is the Power Rule for differentiating. We are finding the derivative of un (a power of a function):

Example:

1.

9

i.ii.

iii.


In the case of we have a power of a function.

If we let u = 2x3 - 1 then y = u4.

So now

y is written as a power of u; and u is a function of x [ u = f(x) ].

To find the derivative of such an expression, we can use our new rule:

where u = 2x3 - 1 and n = 4.

So

We could, of course, use the chain rule, as before: dydx

=dydu

∗dudx

g) h)i)

2.1.4 DERIVATIVE OF A PRODUCT FUNCTION

If u and v are two functions of x, then the derivative of the product uv is given by...

In words, this can be remembered as:

"The derivative of a product of two functions is the first times the derivative of the second, plus the second times the derivative of the first."

Example:

11


If we have a product like

y = (2x2 + 6x)(2x3 + 5x2)

we can find the derivative without multiplying out the expression on the right.

We use the substitutions u = 2x2 + 6x and v = 2x3 + 5x2.

We can then use the PRODUCT RULE:

We first find: and

Then we can write:

Exercise:

a) b) c)

12


d) e) f)

2.1.5 DERIVATIVE OF A QUOTIENT FUNCTION

(A quotient is just a fraction.)

If u and v are two functions of x, then the derivative of the quotient u/v is given by...

In words, this can be remembered as:

"The derivative of a quotient equals bottom times derivative of top minus top times derivative of the bottom, divided by bottom squared."

Example:

1. We wish to find the derivative of the expression:

Solution:

13

We recognise that it is in the form: .

We can use the substitutions:

u = 2x3 and v = 4 − x

Using the quotient rule, we first need to find:

And

Then

2. Find if .

Solution

We can use the substitutions:

u = 4x2 and v = x3 + 3

Using the quotient rule, we first need:
