Differentiating “Combined” Functions Deriving the Product Rule for Differentiation.

Algebraic Combinations  We have seen that it is fairly easy to compute the derivative of a “simple” function using the definition of the derivative.  More complicated functions can be difficult or impossible to differentiate using this method.  If we know the derivatives of two fairly simple functions, we candeduce the derivative of an algebraic combination (e.g. the sum, product, quotient) of these functions without going back to the difference quotient.

A Gambier Example LARGE RATS!!!!

A Gambier Example gobble The rate at which the deer gobble my hostas is proportional to the product of the number of deer and the number of hostas. So we have a gobble function: What can we say about the rate of change of this function? What if over a short period of time  t, from t to t +  t the deer population increases by a small amount by  R L and the hosta population increases by  H. How much does the gobble rate change between time t and time t +  t ?

A Gambier Example

The change in g has three relevant pieces: Old Rats eating poor baby hostas “Cute” baby rats eating vulnerable old hostas “Cute” baby rats eating poor baby hostas

A Gambier Example 0

SO, the rate of change of gobble is given by... The rate at which the number of hostas is changing times the number of large rats. The rate at which the number of large rats is changing times the number of hostas.

The Product Rule for Derivatives So the rate at which a product changes is not merely the product of the changing rates. The nature of the interaction between the functions, causes the overall rate of change to depend on the size of the quantities themselves.

In general, we have…

In the course of the calculation above, we said that Is this actually true? Is it ALWAYS true? Continuity Required! xx+h

The Limit of the Product of Two Functions Would be zero if g were continuous at x=a. Is it?

The Limit of the Product of Two Functions g is continuous at x=a because g is differentiable at x=a.
