What is the limit of six /x as x approaches 0?

1

Options for evaluating limits.

1) Factor
2) Substitute
3) Conjugate

When to use L'Hopital

0/0 or infinity/ infinity

Derivative of tan x

Derivative of cot x

Derivative of sec x

Derivative of csc x

Derivative of inverse sin x

Derivative of inverse cos x

Derivative of inverse tan x

Derivative of inverse cot x

If functions f and g are inverses and the point (a, b) is on the graph of f, then what is g'(b)?

1/ f'(a) or 1/ f'(g(x))

Tangent Line formula

f'(a)(x-a) +f(a)

MVT

f'(c) = f(b) - f(a) / b - a
slope of tangent line is equal to secant line
derivative at x = c is the same as the average rate of change of the interval

How to find if a graph is increasing or decreasing

f'(x) > 0, f(x) is increasing
f'(x) < 0, f(x) is decreasing

How to find if a graph is concave up or down

f"(x) > 0 then f(x) is concave up
f"(x) < 0 then f(x) is concave down.

How to find the point of inflection

f"(x) changes from positive to negative or negative to positive

What is speed?

The absolute value of velocity

Reimann sum

Antiderivative of 1/x

ln |x| + c

Average value of a function

Net Change of a function

Integral from a to b of f'(x) = f(b) -f(a)
