10.7 The Method Of Partial Fractions Return To Contents Go To Problems & Solutions Recall from algebra that a linear function is a polynomial of degree 1, ie a function of the form ax + b (its graph is a line). A quadratic function is a polynomial of degree 2, ie a function of the […]
15.5 Taylor Polynomials And Taylor Theorem Return To Contents Go To Problems & Solutions Consider the Taylor series T(x) of a function f(x) centered at c: Taylor series of f(x) centered at c: Taylor polynomial of f(x) centered at c: Clearly Tn(x) is a polynomial in x – c that involves derivatives of f(x) of […]
Return To Contents Go To Problems & Solutions In general, when two or more quantities are related to each other, their rates of change with respect to time (speeds) are also related to each other. In this section, we’ll solve problems of finding a rate of change with respect to time by searching for how […]

Differentiation Of The Function y = ( f (x)) g (x) Let’s differentiate the function y = ( f (x))g(x), where […]
Calculus Of One Real Variable – By Pheng Kim Ving Chapter 11: Techniques Of Integration – Section 11.1: Approximate Numerical Integration 11.1 Approximate Numerical Integration Return To Contents Go To Problems & Solutions Suppose we wish to evaluate the definite integral: of f. That’s why we spent a considerable amount of time in the last […]
14.3 The Comparison Tests Return To Contents Go To Problems & Solutions 1. The Standard Comparison Test (SCT) In Section 14.2 we introduced some series that were shown to converge or diverge. To determine the behavior (convergence or divergence) of most of them, we algebraically manipulated the sequence of their partial sums, expressing the general […]
6.1.7 The Simple Harmonic Motion Return To Contents Go To Problems & Solutions 1. The Simple Harmonic Motion Consider a mass m suspended vertically by an elastic spring attached to a beam. See Fig. 1.1. It has stretched the spring for some distance. It hangs unmoving in its position of rest, which is its equilibrium […]
14.4 The Root And Ratio Tests Return To Contents Go To Problems & Solutions This section discusses two more convergence tests: the Root Test and the Ratio Test. First we prove a limit that’ll be used later on in this section. The Limit Of x1/x As x Approaches Infinity Proof EOP The Root Test If […]

5.5 The Second-Derivative Test Return To Contents Go To Problems & Solutions 1. The Second-Derivative Test In Section 5.3 Theorem 4.1 we had the first-derivative test for local extrema. In this section we’re going to study the second-derivative test, which is also a test for local extrema. Let f be a function that is twice […]
