A NOTE ON UNITS

Theunits for theaverage rate ofchange !:iD/!:it are theunits for!:iDdivided by the units for!:it, namely, billions of dollars peryear.The instan- taneous rateofchange isthelimit of the aver- age rates of change, soit ismeasured in the same units: billions ofdollars peryear.

In the following example we estimate the rate of change of the national debt with respect to time. Here the function isdefined not by a formula but by a table of values.

EXAMPLE 7 Let D(t) be the Canadian gross public debt at time t.The table in the margin gives approximate values of this function by providing midyear estimates, in billions of dollars, from 1994to 2002. Interpret and estimate the value of D'(l998).

SOLUTION The derivative D'(l998) means the rate of change ofDwith respect totwhen t= 1998, that is, the rate of increase ofthe national debt in 1998.

According to Equation 5,

D'(l998) = lim

D(t) -

D(l998)

Hl998 t - 1998

So we compute and tabulate values of the difference quotient (the average rates of change) as shown in the table at the left. From this table we see that D'(l998) lies some- where between -1.1 and - 5,5 billion dollars per year. [Here we are making the reason- able assumption that the debt didn't fluctuate wildly between 1998 and 2002.] We estimate that the rate ofchange of the Canadian debt in 1998 was the average of these two numbers, namely

The minus sign means that the debt was decreasing at that time.

Another method would betoplot the debt function and estimate the slope of the tan-

gent line when t= 1998. 0

In Examples 3, 6, and 7 we saw three specific examples of rates of change: the veloci- tyof an object isthe rate of change of displacement with respect totime; marginal cost is the rate of change of production cost with respect to the number of items produced; the rate of change ofthe debt with respect to time isof interest in economics. Here is a small sample ofother rates ofchange: In physics, the rate ofchange of work with respect to time is called power. Chemists who study a chemical reaction are interested in the rate of change in theconcentration of a reactant with respect to time (called the rate of reaction).

A biologist isinterested in the rate ofchange of the population of a colony of bacteria with respect totime. In fact, the computation of rates of change is important in all of the natu- ralsciences, inengineering, and even in the social sciences. Further examples will be given in Section 3.7.

All these rates of change are derivatives and can therefore be interpreted as slopes of tangents. This gives added significance tothe solution of the tangent problem. Whenever we solve a problem involving tangent lines, we are not just solving a problem in geome- try.Weare also implicitly solving a great variety of problems involving rates of change in science and engineering.

We can interpret the third derivative physically in the case where the function is the position function s =

of an object that moves along a straight line. Because

Sill =(s")' =a', thethird derivative ofthe position function isthe derivative of theaccel- eration function and is called thejerk:

. da d3s

} = --:it =

dt3

Thus thejerkj isthe rate of change of acceleration. It is aptly named because a largejerk means a sudden change in acceleration, which causes an abrupt movement in avehicle.

Wehave seen that one application of second and third derivatives occurs inanalyzing the motion of objects using acceleration and jerk. We will investigate another applica- tion of second derivatives in Section 4.3, where we show how knowledge of f" gives us information about the shape of the graph of

f.

In Chapter 12we will see how second and higher derivatives enable ustorepresent functions as sums of infinite series.

Let the x-coordinate of one ofthe points inquestion be

Then the slope of the tangent line atthat point is -12/ a2. This tangent line will be parallel tothe line 3x

y =0, or

y = -3x, if ithas the same slope, that is, -3. Equating slopes, we get

--=12 -3 a2

TH E CHAI N RULE

Suppose you are asked todifferentiate the function

F(x) =

R+1

The differentiation formulas you learned in the previous sections of this chapter do not enable you to calculate F'(x).

(15)

If we define £ to be 0 when Llx =0, then £ becomes acontinuous function of Llx. Thus, for a differentiable functionj, we can write

and £ is a continuous function of Llx. This property of differentiable functions is what enables us to prove the Chain Rule.

PROOF OF THE CHAIN RULE Suppose u

=

g(x) is differentiable at a and y

=

f(u) isdifferen- tiable atb =g(a). IfLlx is an increment inx and Llu and Lly are the corresponding incre- ments in u and y, then we can use Equation 5 towrite

where £2 ----0>0as Llu ----0>O.If we now substitute the expression forLlu from Equation 6 into Equation 7, we get

Lly = [f'(b)

+

£2] [g'(a)

+

£J] Llx

Lly

Llx =[f'(b)

+

£2][g'(a)

+ £J]

As Llx ----0>0, Equation 6shows that Llu ----0>O.So both £, ----0>0 and £2 ----0>0as Llx ----0>O.
