Composite, Implicit, and Inverse Functions
If the function , what is the derivative of with respect to ?
What must be true about , where and ?
is undefined due to nonexistence or continuity of in its respective domain.
is discontinuous at as is known to have asymptotes making differentiation impossible.
because is continuously differentiable wherever it exists.
because secant slopes are negative when dealing with
If , which expression represents the second derivative of at ?
If , then is:
Which choice correctly describes how one would determine for a function defined implicitly by ?
Solve explicitly for in terms of , differentiate normally, and then raise to power -6.
Take logarithm on both sides, apply implicit differentiation, solve for and only then take power -6.
Differentiate once implicitly for , substitute into original equation, and solve algebraically before raising it.
Apply implicit differentiation directly on both sides, solve for , then raise it to power -6.
How can we find the derivatives of inverse trigonometric functions?
By applying Rolle’s Theorem
By using L'Hôpital's Rule
By using the Main Theorem for Inverse Functions
By applying the Squeeze Theorem
Which following expression can be used as an equivalent representation if ?
