Calculus of one variable Let y = axb‚ where a and b are numbers‚ with b different from zero. The derivative of y with respect to x is dy/dx = abxb-1 Examples: y = 2x7‚ dy/dx = 2*7x7-1 = 14x6 y = 5x0.3‚ dy/dx = 5*0.3*x0.3-1 = 1.5x-0.7 Exercises: Calculate dy/dx a) y= 3x2 b) y = 12x0

I’m good at many things but some stuff I need improve in. One thing I need to improve in is math because it’s little complicated to me but I hope it changes. I learn the best one on one depending on what subject. I enjoy playing math games which is easier to learn too for me. There many goals I want to accomplish. One goal I have I have is to get into AP classes in 11th grade and 12th. My go for math class this year is to get

Pre-Calculus and Trig/Pre-Calculus Writing Assignment As a part of our math course we have been assigned a writing piece in which we are required to discuss the properties and uses of several kinds of algebraic functions. The four models include‚ linear‚ exponential‚ power‚ and inverse power. The purpose of this assignment is to review our understanding of these models and their uses and to fulfill a writing piece for the MEAP test. The first and simplest function to be discussed is the linear function

Math Portfolio HL- Type 1 INVESTIGATINGRATIOS OF AREAS AND VOLUMES The purpose of this portfolio is to investigate the ratios of areas and volumes when a function y= xn is graphed between two arbitrary parameters x=a and x=b such that a‹b. Task 1 The general formula to find area A is [pic] The general formula to find area B is [pic] Therefore‚ the ratio of Area A to Area B is- = [pic] ÷ [pic] = [pic] × [pic] = n : 1 n:1 is the general conjecture formed.
