Day 32 Use the definition of derivative to find the derivative of a given function at a given point.
Foerster: Exploration 3 – 1 We are not transitioning to finding derivatives by hand using the formal limit definition of derivative at a pont. We have in the first two units visited this idea a couple of times. In this exploration we will keep the functions as quadratics in order to keep the limits manageable algebraically.
Spaceship Problem: A spaceship approaches a far-off planet Spaceship Problem: A spaceship approaches a far-off planet. At time t minutes after its retrorockets fire, its distance, 𝑓 𝑡 kilometers, from the surface. The figure shows the graph of f. Confirm by grapher that this is correct. Previously we learned that the instantaneous rate of change (derivative) at a given point could be estimated by finding the average rate of change (slope) between the given point and another point that is very close. Find the average rate of change of 𝑓 𝑡 with respect to t from t = 5 to 5.1. What are the units of this rate of change? Chunking: Problems 1-2 Problems 1 and 2 are here to make sure the students have the function entered correctly into the calculator and remind them how to calculate difference quotients efficiently.

This number is called the derivative of f at t = 5, written as 𝑓 ′ 5 . What physical quantity does this number represent? What are the units? What form does 𝑚 5 take if you substitute 5 for t? What word describes this form? Why is 𝑚 5 undefined?
This number is called the derivative of f at t = 5, written as 𝑓 ′ 5 . What physical quantity does this number represent? What are the units? 𝑓 ′ 5 =2 km per min. This value is the velocity of the spaceship at t = 5. What form does 𝑚 5 take if you substitute 5 for t? What word describes this form? Why is 𝑚 5 undefined? 𝑚 5 = 𝑓 5 −𝑓 5 5−5 = 0 0 which is undefined because of the division by zero and is called an indeterminate form.
On the graph plot a line with slope equal to the derivative you calculated on problem 4, passing through the point on the graph of f where t = 5. What words can you use to describe the relationship between the line in problem 7 and the graph of the function f? Chunking: Problems 7-10 These problems review concepts previously visited. Make sure the students still understand the connections: function, derivative, tangent line, rate of change… #9 – Emphasize a point-slope form. The y-intercept is of no importance to the problem because the tangent line is only an approximation close to the point (5, 3). Therefore the slope-intercept form is not useful.

Higher Derivatives
Higher derivatives are obtained by repeatedly differentiating a function. If 𝑓 ′ is differentiable, then the second derivative, denoted 𝑓 ′′ is the derivative The second derivative is the rate of change of the first derivative. 𝑓 ′′ 𝑥 = 𝑑 𝑑𝑥 𝑓 ′ 𝑥
The process of differentiation can be continued, provided that the derivatives exist. The third derivative, denoted 𝑓 ′′′ 𝑥 or 𝑓 3 𝑥 , is the derivative of 𝑓 ′′ 𝑥 . In Leibniz notation, we write: 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑥 , 𝑑 2 𝑦 𝑑 𝑥 2 , 𝑑 3 𝑦 𝑑 𝑥 3 , 𝑑 4 𝑦 𝑑 𝑥 4 , … 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑥 has for its units: unit of y per unit of x 𝑑 2 𝑦 𝑑 𝑥 2 has for its units: units of dy/dx per unit of x, or unit of y per unit of x per unit of x

Implicit Differentation
We have developed the basic techniques for calculating a derivative 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑥 when y is given explicitly in terms of x – such as 𝑦= 𝑥 3 +1. Suppose y is defined implicitly such as 𝑦 4 +𝑥𝑦= 𝑥 3 −𝑥+2 in which the equation cannot be solved for y. How can we find the slope of the tangent line at a point on the graph? Although it may be difficult or even impossible to solve for y explicitly as a function of x, we can find 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑥 using the method of implicit differentiation.
Guidelines for Implicit Differentiation Differentiate both sides of the equation with respect to x. The Chain Rule allows us to take the derivative of y by putting 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑥 with it. Collect all terms involving 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑥 on the left side of the equation and move all other terms to the right side of the equation. Factor 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑥 out of the left side of the equation. Solve for 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑥 .
