Functions 3 (F3).

I can determine whether a function is continuous at a point.

Subsection 4.2 Derivatives (D)

Derivatives 1 (D1).

I can compute the derivative of a function using the limit definition.

Derivatives 2 (D2).

I can compute the derivative of a function using
  • the power rule,

I can compute the derivative of a product or quotient of two or more functions.

Derivatives 4 (D4).

I can compute the derivative of a composition of two or more functions.

Derivatives 5 (D5).

I can use implicit differentiation to solve related rates problems.

Derivatives 6 (D6).

I can compute the derivative of transcendental functions and their inverses.

Subsection 4.3 Applications of the Derivative (A)

Applications of the Derivative 1 (A1).

I can use the first and second derivatives of a function to
  • find the critical numbers,
  • identify local extreme values,
  • identify the concavity of a function on an interval, and
  • identify inflection points.

Applications of the Derivative 3 (A3).

I can use the closed interval method to solve optimization problems.
