This says that the values of f(x) tend to

get closer and closer to the number L as

x gets closer and closer to the number a

(from either side of a) but x ≠ a.

The concept of . . . LIMIT!

The Intermediate Value Theorem

Suppose that f is continuous on the closed interval [a, b] and let N be any number between f(a) and f(b), where f(a) ≠ f(b).

Then, there exists a number c in (a, b) such that f(c) = N.

“A continuous function takes on every intermediate value between the function values f(a) and f(b).”

We call this slope calculation the

derivative of f at x = a.

The value f ’(a) is called:• the derivative of f at x =

a,• the instantaneous rate

of change of f at x = a, • the slope of f at x = a,

and• the slope of the

tangent line to f at x = a.

The slope of this secant line differs from the slope of the tangent line by an amount that is approximately proportional to h. As h approaches zero, the slope of the secant line approaches the slope of the tangent line. Therefore, the true derivative of f at x is the limit of the value of the slope function as the secant lines get closer and closer to being a tangent line.

MAT 145Monday, September 7, 2015

Calculate the derivative function, f ’(x), for f(x) = x2. Use the limit definition of the derivative.
