  1. Aim: Differential? Isn’t that part of a car’s drive transmission? Do Now: Find the equation of the tangent line for f(x) = 1 + sinx at (0, 1).

  2. Linear Approximations y = x2 graph of function is approximated by a straight line. y = x2 = 2x - 1 y = x2 = 2x - 1

  3. c, f(c) x x c Linear Approximations Can the graph of a function be approximated by a straight line? By restricting values of x to be close to c, the values of y of the tangent linecan be used as approximations of the values of f. (x, y) f as x c, the limit of s(x) or y is f(c) s equation of tangent line y2 – y1 = m(x2 – x1) - point slope y – f(c) = f’(c) (x – c) Equation of tangent line approximation y = f(c) + f’(c)(x – c)

  4. = 1 + x Model Problem Find the tangent line approximation of at the point (0, 1). 1st derivative of f Equation of tangent line approximation y = f(c) + f’(c)(x – c) y = 1 + cos 0 (x – 0) y = 1 + 1x The closer x is to 0, the better the approximation.

  5. Δy dy Differential derivative of y with respect to x also the ratio dy  dx is the slope of the tangent line When we talk only of dy or dx we talk differentials As Δx gets smaller and smaller, before it reaches 0,  approximates actual change approximation of Δy

  6. Δy f’(c)Δx f(c + Δx) c, f(c) Δx f(c) c + Δx c Differential Approximations (c + Δx, f(c + Δx) dy the ratio dy  dx is the slope of the tangent line = dx When Δx is small, then Δy is also small and Δy = f(c + Δx)– f(c) and is approximated by f’(c)Δx.

  7. Definition Let y = f(x) represent a function that is differentiable in an open interval containing x . The differential of x (denoted by dx) is any nonzero real number. The differential of y (denoted by dy) is dy = f’(x)dx Differential When Δx is small, then Δy is also small and Δy = f(c + Δx)– f(c) and is approximated by f’(c)Δx. Δy = f(c + Δx)– f(c) actual change in y  f’(c)Δx approximate change in y Δy dy Δy  f’(c)Δx

  8. Differential Definition Δxis an arbitrary increment of the independent variable x. dx is called the differential of the independent variable x, dx is equal to Δx. Δy is the actual change in the variable y as x changes from x to x + Δx; that is, Δy = f(x + Δx)– f(x) dy, called the differential of the dependent variable y, is defined by dy = f’(x)dx

  9. actual change in y Δy = f(c + Δx)– f(c) Comparing Δy and dy Let y = x2. Find dy when x = 1 and dx = 0.01. Compare this value with Δy for x = 1 and Δx = 0.01. approximate change in y dy = f’(x)dx y = f(x) = x2 f’(x) = 2x dy = f’(1)(0.01) dy = 2(1)(0.01) dy = 2(0.01) = 0.02

  10. dy = 2(0.01) = 0.02 Comparing Δy and dy Let y = x2. Find dy when x = 1 and dx = 0.01. Compare this value with Δy for x = 1 and Δx = 0.01. approximate change in y actual change in y dy = f’(x)dx Δy = f(c + Δx)– f(c) Δy = f(1 + 0.01)– f(1) Δy = f(1.01)– f(1) Δy = 1.012– 12 Δy = 0.0201 values become closer to each other when dx or Δx approaches 0

  11. Δx = 0.01 Comparing Δy and dy Let y = x2. Find dy when x = 1 and dx = 0.01. Compare this value with Δy for x = 1 and Δx = 0.01. = 0.0201 = 0.02 1, 1

  13. Measurement error Propagated error Exact value Measurement value Error Propagation Propagation error – when a measured value that has an error in measurement is used to compute another value. f( ) x + Δx  f(x) = Δy approximate change in y dy = f’(x)dx

  14. approximate change in y dy = f’(x)dx Model Problem The radius of a ball bearing is measured to be 0.7 inch. If the measurement is correct to within 0.01 inch, estimate the propagated error in the volume V of the ball bearing. r = 0.7 measured radius possible error -0.01 <Δr < 0.01 approximate ΔV by dV substitute r and dr

  15. Relative Error The radius of a ball bearing is measured to be 0.7 inch. If the measurement is correct to within 0.01 inch, estimate the propagated error in the volume V of the ball bearing.  4.29% relative error

  16. Let u and v be differentiable functions of x. Definition The differential of x (denoted by dx) is any nonzero real number. The differential of y (denoted by dy) is dy = f’(x)dx. Differential Formulas  dy = y’dx Liebniz notation
