Q

What is the relationship between continuity and differentiability?

A

Differentiability implies continuity, but NOT vice versa.

This DOES NOT mean that if f is continuous at x=c then f is differentiable at x=c.

Q

For derivatives, what is the Sum Rule?

A

The Difference Rule works simliarly. The derivative of a difference is equal to the difference of the individual derivatives.

Q

What is the Squeeze Theorem?

25
What is the Intermediate Value Theorem?
In simpler terms, if a continuous function goes from one y-value to another, it must take on every y-value in between at some point.
26
What is a useful formula for finding limits of functions as their input approaches infinity? (Not L’Hôpital’s rule)
If possible, manipulate the function so that all of the terms containing variables are of the following form:
27
What is the definition of continuity?
A function f(x) is continuous at a point x = c if the limit of f(x) as x approaches c exists, is equal to f(c), and f(c) is defined.
28
What is the Sum Property of Limits?
## Footnote This property works similarly for subtraction (the Difference Property of Limits)
29
What is the Product Property of Limits?
30
What is the Quotient Property of Limits?
31
What is the limit of a function multiplied by a constant?
32
What is the limit of a composite function?
## Footnote The outer function must be continuous at the limit of the inner function
33
L'Hôpital's Rule
L'Hôpital's rule is a powerful tool in calculus used to evaluate limits of indeterminate forms like 0/0 or ∞/∞. It states that if the limit of a quotient results in one of these indeterminate forms, you can find the limit by taking the derivatives of the numerator and denominator separately and then evaluating the limit of the resulting quotient. ## Footnote If, after computing L'Hôpital's rule you still receive indeterminate form, it is possible that using the rule again on the new expression will result in a legitmate answer. This can be chained several times.

Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC) shows that differentiation and integration are inverse operations, meaning each operation undoes the other. There are two parts: the first part explains that you can find an antiderivative by integrating a function, and the second part shows you can calculate a definite integral by finding the difference between the values of its antiderivative at the endpoints of the interval.
