1
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,320
Okay, today we're going to learn something called the derivative.

2
00:00:16,980 --> 00:00:20,380
This is what calculus is all about.

3
00:00:23,580 --> 00:00:29,200
The rest of your calculus career is going to depend on the derivative.

4
00:00:31,020 --> 00:00:32,140
I'll define it for you.

5
00:00:32,140 --> 00:00:37,860
But let's start with this function here.

6
00:00:40,380 --> 00:00:42,100
A nice little quadratic function.

7
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,140
Okay, if we wanted to find the

8
00:00:49,260 --> 00:00:51,260
slope of the

9
00:00:52,580 --> 00:00:55,120
secant line, let's say between

10
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:56,160
these two points.

11
00:01:01,060 --> 00:01:02,920
How do I find the slope of the secant line?

12
00:01:15,220 --> 00:01:32,040
Let's say, what is it, between...

13
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,240
So between x equals one and three, for example.

14
00:01:35,660 --> 00:01:43,960
So this can be f of three minus f of one over three minus one

15
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:49,720
or y two minus y one over x two minus x one.

16
00:01:53,060 --> 00:01:55,860
Which gives us, what is that?

17
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:00,880
Three squared minus two times three minus one

18
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:02,660
minus

19
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,240
and what is that?

20
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:30,860
9 minus 6 minus 1 minus 1 minus 2 minus 1 is that 0?

21
00:02:33,220 --> 00:02:34,220
Minus...

22
00:02:34,220 --> 00:02:36,880
Sorry, minus 1?

23
00:02:38,220 --> 00:02:39,220
Minus 2.

24
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:44,640
Minus 2.

25
00:02:46,060 --> 00:02:47,600
Anyways, arithmetic and stuff.

26
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,060
2 is that right?

27
00:02:55,600 --> 00:03:01,243
Ok, so the slope of that line is 2, and what if we wanted to find the equation of

28
00:03:01,243 --> 00:03:01,993
that

29
00:03:01,540 --> 00:03:02,700
line, what would we do?

30
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,907
Just use point slope formula, doesn't matter if you use this point or this order

31
00:03:10,907 --> 00:03:11,657
there.

32
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:25,771
So the equation of the secant line would be y minus, let's say 3, equals 2, the

33
00:03:25,771 --> 00:03:29,200
slope times x minus...

34
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:31,840
Was that three?

35
00:03:33,380 --> 00:03:34,280
Sorry.

36
00:03:33,780 --> 00:03:34,680
Two.

37
00:03:35,500 --> 00:03:36,840
This should be a two.

38
00:03:37,500 --> 00:03:38,400
Two.

39
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:38,860
This should be a three.

40
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:39,660
There we go.

41
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:40,860
Have you got it?

42
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:41,620
Yeah.

43
00:03:41,420 --> 00:03:42,320
Okay.

44
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:45,920
Um, that's easy.

45
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,940
Well, we did this in like eighth grade.

46
00:03:50,620 --> 00:03:51,520
Yeah.

47
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,540
Find equations of secant lines.

48
00:03:56,180 --> 00:04:05,600
So, we started calculus with this, from the first day.

49
00:04:06,460 --> 00:04:10,420
We wanted to know, not the slope of the secant line, but what?

50
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,000
Slope of the tangent line.

51
00:04:17,500 --> 00:04:23,000
So our goal here is to find the slope of the tangent line at x equals 3.

52
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:37,980
We don't have our pair. So first day of school or first day of our lesson we

53
00:04:37,980 --> 00:04:46,700
couldn't figure it out so how did we estimate it? We found secant lines like

54
00:04:46,700 --> 00:04:56,580
3 minus f of 2.9 over 3 minus 2.9.

55
00:04:58,160 --> 00:04:59,060
OK.

56
00:04:59,860 --> 00:05:00,920
And that got an estimate.

57
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,440
How do we get a better estimate?

58
00:05:03,540 --> 00:05:04,440
2.9 by 3.

59
00:05:04,780 --> 00:05:07,540
And you choose a closer number, closer number.

60
00:05:08,620 --> 00:05:10,020
And then you want a better estimate,

61
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:14,080
we choose a closer number, and so on.

62
00:05:26,260 --> 00:05:40,220
Let's call this...

63
00:05:40,220 --> 00:05:47,900
So this would be the slope of the secant line between two numbers between whatever

64
00:05:51,820 --> 00:05:55,780
For any chosen x, this gives the slope of the secant line between x and 3.

65
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:07,080
So wherever X is this gives us the slope of the tangent line between X and 3

66
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,480
And now that we learned something called limits

67
00:06:16,500 --> 00:06:18,480
We want to know

68
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:24,200
What this is approaching as X approaches 3

69
00:06:25,060 --> 00:06:28,960
And we now have this tool called limits

70
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,660
as X approaches 3

71
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,700
Now all we got to do is if we were able to find this limit

72
00:06:40,220 --> 00:06:44,700
this is the slope of the tangent line and that is what we call the derivative

73
00:06:44,700 --> 00:06:52,660
which is the slope of the tangent line so in fact let's do this limit that's

74
00:06:52,660 --> 00:07:13,020
As x approaches 3, evaluate the limit of the secant slope.

75
00:07:13,020 --> 00:07:36,900
one is that it okay if we plug in three what do we get we try direct substitution

76
00:07:43,820 --> 00:07:45,920
You get 0 over 0.

77
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,740
Right, you plug it in here, you get 2, 2 minus 2 is 0.

78
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,640
Okay, so we gotta solve this limit.

79
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:55,900
How are we gonna solve this limit?

80
00:07:58,540 --> 00:07:59,440
No.

81
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:04,340
Yeah, let's multiply this out.

82
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:06,400
First off, simplify.

83
00:08:18,100 --> 00:08:33,702
plus one. So that's two plus one is three. So negative x squared plus two x plus

84
00:08:33,702 --> 00:08:34,620
three.

85
00:08:34,620 --> 00:08:35,520
is that right?

86
00:08:41,460 --> 00:08:45,000
Probably in 3 you still get 0 over 0. So what are we gonna do next?

87
00:08:51,680 --> 00:08:54,680
So very first trick besides direct substitution

88
00:08:57,180 --> 00:08:59,180
Factor okay, we got factor this

89
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,160
it's usually hard to factor with well not hard but

90
00:09:04,620 --> 00:09:11,780
Let me factor out a negative first.

91
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:35,500
And what's this factor 2x minus 3x plus 1?

92
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,200
Now these simplify.

93
00:09:53,620 --> 00:09:54,780
Now we just use direct substitution.

94
00:09:54,780 --> 00:10:10,260
plus 1 is 4. So we took the limit of the slope of the secant line and we ended up

95
00:10:10,260 --> 00:10:20,940
with 4 which is the slope of the tangent line. Okay so all we got to do is

96
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:28,400
limits of the slope of the secant line and this gives us the slope of the tangent

97
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:36,380
line so the slope of that line is 4 the equation of the tangent line would be y

98
00:10:36,380 --> 00:10:49,280
minus 2 is 4 times x minus 3. There's actually two different definitions of

99
00:10:49,280 --> 00:11:04,940
the derivative the my favorite one let's say we have any function here okay if we

100
00:11:04,940 --> 00:11:15,000
want to know the slope of that tangent line x equals 1 we need two points let

101
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:23,100
Let me call some number right over here x plus some very small number h.

102
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:41,020
The secant slope is f of x plus h minus f of x, divided by x plus h minus x.

103
00:11:41,020 --> 00:11:56,840
h minus x. Okay, so that's the slope of the tangent line there. h is the distance

104
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:03,060
The distance between the x-values is h, and we let h approach zero.

105
00:12:03,060 --> 00:12:08,500
we're going to do is we want this distance to go to zero. So we take the

106
00:12:08,560 --> 00:12:34,687
limit as h approaches 0. And this simplifies, right? h approaches 0. Over h. This is

107
00:12:34,687 --> 00:12:36,320
the

108
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,940
main definition we're going to use I'll show you the other one a slight

109
00:12:39,940 --> 00:12:44,740
difference this is the slope of this tangent line this is the derivative

110
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:54,840
The other definition is the limit for this definition number two.

111
00:12:58,460 --> 00:12:59,860
The main notation uses f prime to represent the derivative of f.

112
00:12:59,860 --> 00:13:10,220
main notation we're going to use we put this apostrophe up here that stands for

113
00:13:10,220 --> 00:13:18,740
the derivative of F we sometimes raise F prime of X or just F prime that means

114
00:13:18,740 --> 00:13:23,860
the first derivative or the derivative the slope of the tangent line here this

115
00:13:23,860 --> 00:13:27,800
This value is the derivative at x equals a.

116
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,220
okay this one is the derivative typically

117
00:13:36,220 --> 00:13:59,416
at, it's the derivative, at x equals a. This is the derivative at x. Okay, and I'll

118
00:13:59,416 --> 00:14:00,780
show

119
00:14:00,780 --> 00:14:04,060
in a minute why it's better.

120
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,680
So let's do the same function again.

121
00:14:12,660 --> 00:14:13,880
What was it?

122
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:15,840
x squared minus 2x?

123
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:17,660
Minus 2x minus 1.

124
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:18,740
Minus 1.

125
00:14:18,500 --> 00:14:19,400
Minus 1.

126
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:29,720
This is the...

127
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:37,684
The definition is the limit as h approaches zero of f of x plus h minus f of x, all

128
00:14:37,684 --> 00:14:38,480
over h.

129
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,340
The reason this one I like better, well, for two reasons.

130
00:14:44,620 --> 00:14:54,132
One is when we try to simplify this, you end up having to factor out a binomial and

131
00:14:54,132 --> 00:14:54,882
factoring

132
00:14:54,660 --> 00:14:55,560
is hard.

133
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:01,140
Okay here we're only going to have to factor out an H out of here.

134
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,860
It's a lot easier when you factor out one term instead of a whole binomial.

135
00:15:07,100 --> 00:15:09,300
The other reason I'll show you in a minute.

136
00:15:10,300 --> 00:15:13,160
So let's go ahead and do that. Do this.

137
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:15,260
The limit

138
00:15:17,620 --> 00:15:19,980
as h approaches zero.

139
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,360
Here we plug in x plus

140
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,500
h everywhere we see an x.

141
00:15:55,200 --> 00:16:03,460
x squared minus 2x minus 1 all over h.

142
00:16:12,060 --> 00:16:18,538
This is the slope of the secant line, and we let the distance h between the points

143
00:16:18,538 --> 00:16:19,300
approach zero.

144
00:16:19,300 --> 00:16:23,440
h, so the distance between those two ordered pairs goes to zero.

145
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,884
Okay, now to solve this limit, we just have to multiply out a bunch of stuff and

146
00:16:28,884 --> 00:16:29,634
simplify,

147
00:16:29,500 --> 00:16:33,567
Eventually every numerator term has a factor of h, which cancels with the

148
00:16:33,567 --> 00:16:34,317
denominator.

149
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,120
So let's go ahead and multiply that out.

150
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:09,069
okay once you multiply it out a bunch of stuff is going to cancel out but not a

151
00:17:09,069 --> 00:17:09,819
bunch some stuff

152
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,040
the x squared and the negative x squared is zero

153
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,800
negative 2x and 2x is zero

154
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,500
negative one positive one is zero

155
00:17:35,140 --> 00:17:42,820
Every term in the numerator has a factor of h, so factor out h.

156
00:17:46,580 --> 00:17:47,540
Let's do this.

157
00:18:02,420 --> 00:18:05,980
And now H divided by H is always 1.

158
00:18:05,980 --> 00:18:08,980
as long as we get...

159
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,780
as h approaches zero

160
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,400
After cancellation, the expression is 2x plus h minus 2.

161
00:18:17,980 --> 00:18:20,480
Now we use direct substitution

162
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,540
Again, the only thing we plug in zero into

163
00:18:23,540 --> 00:18:25,740
is the h

164
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:38,260
And we get 2x plus 0 minus 2 equals 2x minus 2.

165
00:18:46,140 --> 00:18:47,300
Okay, so

166
00:18:47,300 --> 00:18:51,280
But the derivative is the slope of the tangent line.

167
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:53,980
Slopes are numbers.

168
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,320
They're not functions.

169
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,680
So how is this the slope of the tangent line?

170
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,660
If it's not a number.

171
00:19:14,980 --> 00:19:17,000
Any thoughts on that?

172
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:31,070
So this is not a slope because it's not a number, but I still call it the slope of

173
00:19:31,070 --> 00:19:31,840
the tangent

174
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,620
Ok, yeah, this is very important.

175
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:40,120
If we plug in a number for x, we get a slope, we get a number.

176
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:52,980
So, for example, F prime of 3, we get 2 times 3 minus 2, which is 4.

177
00:19:53,900 --> 00:19:55,200
That is a slope.

178
00:19:55,740 --> 00:19:58,120
That is the slope of the tangent line x equals 3.

179
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,180
This is what we did a few minutes ago.

180
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:10,460
If I plug in 1, f prime of 1, we get 2 times 1 minus 2 is 0.

181
00:20:12,500 --> 00:20:15,340
And we get the slope of the tangent line.

182
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,280
We get the derivative at x equals 1.

183
00:20:19,700 --> 00:20:30,280
If we plug in, let's say, zero, we get two times zero minus two is negative two.

184
00:20:31,580 --> 00:20:36,480
We get the slope of the tangent line right here.

185
00:20:37,740 --> 00:20:45,431
The definition is the limit as h approaches zero of f of x plus h minus f of x, all

186
00:20:45,431 --> 00:20:46,200
over h.

187
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:50,780
0 f of x plus h minus fx over x plus h, this formula.

188
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:58,000
Okay, we end up getting another function of x,

189
00:20:58,340 --> 00:21:01,800
which simply tells us all we do is plug in a number

190
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,080
for x to give us the slope of the tangent line.

191
00:21:05,420 --> 00:21:08,720
Okay, so this gives us the slope of the tangent line,

192
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,700
depending on the value of x, which is nice.

193
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:14,000
Now we can find the slope anywhere.

194
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:15,680
Just plug in a different x value,

195
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:23,720
we get a different slope of the tangent line. If we use if we were to use the

196
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:30,460
other formula the limit is X approaches we usually put a number in here like 3

197
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:41,540
f of X minus f of 3 over X minus 3 this will give us a specific number this

198
00:21:41,540 --> 00:21:47,420
gives us 4 it does not tell us the slope of the tangent line anywhere okay so

199
00:21:47,420 --> 00:21:55,060
that's the main reason I like the other definition better okay let's talk about

200
00:21:55,700 --> 00:21:59,760
It gives us the instantaneous rate of change.

201
00:22:22,020 --> 00:22:33,520
One notation is f prime of x.

202
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:42,680
Another one is dy dx.

203
00:22:49,820 --> 00:22:54,560
If we're given like a function f of x equals whatever,

204
00:22:56,260 --> 00:22:59,740
x squared plus 3 or something, we usually use this notation.

205
00:23:01,660 --> 00:23:09,860
If we were just given like y equals, we usually use this notation.

206
00:23:09,860 --> 00:23:14,620
Okay, the other notations would be

207
00:23:17,220 --> 00:23:21,060
D dx of f

208
00:23:22,380 --> 00:23:28,380
That also means the derivative of our function f with respect to our variable x

209
00:23:33,740 --> 00:23:36,420
That the only other one

210
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:47,220
The expression dy over dx is another derivative notation, not an ordinary fraction.

211
00:23:47,220 --> 00:23:53,960
our function y and tells us with wit with respect to what variable we're

212
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:57,860
eventually going to have multi very multiple variables so it's gonna be

213
00:23:57,860 --> 00:24:03,980
important which variable we're taking the derivative with respect to but we

214
00:24:03,980 --> 00:24:22,660
all three of these notations questions so far at Leibniz which he used this

215
00:24:22,660 --> 00:24:35,400
notation and I believe Renee Descartes used this notation but either one and

216
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:40,780
we're gonna use them both all year round so let's do another one

217
00:24:40,780 --> 00:24:44,540
It's called g of x. Let's just keep it simple. Square root of x plus 1.

218
00:24:46,900 --> 00:24:57,860
Let's find the equation of the tangent line.

219
00:25:01,860 --> 00:25:07,980
Half tax equals 8.

220
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:23,200
To find the equation of the tangent line, what do we have to find first?

221
00:25:29,980 --> 00:25:30,880
Uh oh.

222
00:25:32,220 --> 00:25:34,760
To find any equation, what do we need to know about the equation?

223
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,994
We need to find the slope of the tangent line before we can find the equation of the

224
00:25:45,994 --> 00:25:46,744
tangent

225
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:47,460
line, that's what I was asking for.

226
00:25:48,500 --> 00:25:50,480
So we need to find the slope of the tangent line.

227
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,300
The slope of the tangent line is the derivative.

228
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:06,420
We use g prime of x.

229
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:10,867
Use g prime of x, the limit as h approaches zero of g of x plus h minus g of x, all

230
00:26:10,867 --> 00:26:11,617
over h.

231
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:13,840
h approaches zero.

232
00:26:17,020 --> 00:26:25,665
g of x plus h minus g of x all over h. That is simply the definition of the

233
00:26:25,665 --> 00:26:26,415
derivative.

234
00:26:39,300 --> 00:26:43,040
Now we plug in this right here.

235
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:49,284
Substitution gives the square root of x plus h plus 1, minus the square root of x

236
00:26:49,284 --> 00:26:51,120
plus 1, all over h.

237
00:26:55,000 --> 00:27:05,700
minus the square root of X plus H X plus one all over H.

238
00:27:11,540 --> 00:27:17,500
Every time we use the definition, you try direct substitution, you always get 0 over

239
00:27:17,500 --> 00:27:18,400
0.

240
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:19,940
So we need to do some trick.

241
00:27:20,220 --> 00:27:22,340
What's going to be the first, what trick we're going to use here?

242
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:24,740
Define this limit.

243
00:27:32,220 --> 00:27:35,880
Multiply numerator and denominator by the conjugate.

244
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:51,380
conjugate which is what rad x plus h plus 1 minus plus rad x plus 1 over

245
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:59,700
x plus x plus one.

246
00:27:59,700 --> 00:28:04,460
get this and this minus

247
00:28:31,340 --> 00:28:35,900
The middle terms cancel when multiplying conjugates.

248
00:28:35,900 --> 00:28:37,880
milli-turns. I always can't tell when you multiply

249
00:28:38,500 --> 00:28:41,880
by the derivative. That's zero.

250
00:28:58,780 --> 00:29:06,840
minus minus okay the x's cancel is zero the one and the negative one is zero

251
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,900
And we're only left with H, right?

252
00:29:33,780 --> 00:29:35,580
Now the H is simplified.

253
00:29:38,900 --> 00:29:43,680
Direct substitution now gives 1 over 2 times the square root of x plus 1.

254
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:44,580
Yeah.

255
00:29:58,100 --> 00:30:02,300
OK, so this is the slope of the secant line,

256
00:30:02,300 --> 00:30:04,740
but depending on the value of x.

257
00:30:06,660 --> 00:30:09,120
So what x value did we want to find today?

258
00:30:11,100 --> 00:30:28,780
At x equals 8, g prime of 8 is 1 over 2 times the square root of 9, or 1 sixth.

259
00:30:33,700 --> 00:30:46,360
This is the slope of the tangent line at x equals 8.

260
00:30:47,340 --> 00:30:52,240
and to find the equation now that we got the slope it's simply we always do point

261
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:53,140
slope formula

262
00:31:00,740 --> 00:31:15,640
There it is.

263
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:18,860
Let's see if that worked out.

264
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:56,640
Okay, and there it is.

265
00:31:57,740 --> 00:31:59,780
That is the slope of the tangent line.

266
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:06,460
That is the equation of the tangent line through the point 8 comma 3.

267
00:32:07,500 --> 00:32:08,400
Pretty cool.

268
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:09,780
We need no calculators.

269
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:17,119
We didn't have to keep plugging in values closer and closer and closer to 8 to the

270
00:32:17,119 --> 00:32:17,869
hard

271
00:32:19,060 --> 00:32:20,200
secant line formula.

272
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:22,240
We were able to do it all with no calculator.

273
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:24,700
We wanted any other point.

274
00:32:34,740 --> 00:32:38,380
What x value is this not defined at?

275
00:32:41,500 --> 00:32:44,920
Definitely not negative one, and then everything to the left of negative one.

276
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:59,640
okay is our function defined at negative one it is okay but the slope of the

277
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:06,240
tangent line is not defined the endpoints well this one's a little

278
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:13,660
different but it will not have a derivative at endpoints because the

279
00:33:13,660 --> 00:33:21,060
limit as H approaches 0 from the left the function doesn't even exist okay so

280
00:33:21,060 --> 00:33:30,800
derivatives don't exist at endpoints the other problem is this is a vertical

281
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:37,780
tangent line which the slope won't exist anyways okay let's do one more what time

282
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:53,560
was V of T negative minus 1 squared plus 5. This gives us the volume, the amount of

283
00:33:53,560 --> 00:34:01,160
water in the tank, the volume of the tank in gallons. So this is in gallons. Yeah.

284
00:34:05,420 --> 00:34:13,860
So the question was, what's the instantaneous rate of flow at three hours?

285
00:34:15,900 --> 00:34:17,320
And t was in hours, right?

286
00:34:19,620 --> 00:34:24,980
We need to find the slope of the tangent line at t equals three.

287
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:45,980
So, we need to find V prime of t, or also known as, well, dV dt, same thing.

288
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:54,180
the limit as h approaches 0

289
00:34:57,580 --> 00:34:59,280
V of

290
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,420
T plus

291
00:35:02,420 --> 00:35:07,640
H minus V of T all over H.

292
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:08,540
Here.

293
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:16,840
So it's going to be negative t plus h minus h.

294
00:35:16,860 --> 00:35:25,140
1 squared plus 5.

295
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:35,680
Negative t minus 1 squared plus 5 all over h.

296
00:35:40,580 --> 00:35:42,780
Actually, before we finish this letter,

297
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:49,620
There's going to be units for this answer. What are the units going to be?

298
00:35:50,420 --> 00:35:55,060
Gallons per hour. Why is that?

299
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:05,200
This is the change in gallons. All these values are in gallons.

300
00:36:06,860 --> 00:36:10,920
And this is the change in x, this is going to be in hours.

301
00:36:13,060 --> 00:36:13,960
Okay.

302
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:19,431
You can always look at this, it's always the units of this function divided by the

303
00:36:19,431 --> 00:36:20,181
units

304
00:36:19,720 --> 00:36:20,740
of this variable.

305
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,140
So gallons per hour.

306
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:27,760
Now we just have to multiply this out.

307
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:29,000
This is going to be a little ugly.

308
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:38,700
Expand t plus h minus 1, squared.

309
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,320
What is that equal to?

310
00:36:41,780 --> 00:36:42,920
T squared.

311
00:36:44,460 --> 00:36:48,340
S t h minus t.

312
00:36:52,760 --> 00:37:03,780
plus TH plus H squared minus H, is that right?

313
00:37:05,260 --> 00:37:12,360
Minus T minus H, that's this guy right here.

314
00:37:18,340 --> 00:37:23,520
So we have negative t squared.

315
00:37:29,180 --> 00:37:47,860
THTH plus 2TH minus 2T minus 2H minus 1, is that right?

316
00:37:51,280 --> 00:38:07,880
Distribute the negatives and combine like terms.

317
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:21,660
3t plus 1 minus 5 hopefully I did that right let me distribute this negative

318
00:38:21,660 --> 00:38:31,520
negative negative positive positive positive and we should have a bunch of

319
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:53,720
here negative 2t squared t squared 2t minus 2t plus 1 that's not right 5 and

320
00:38:54,220 --> 00:38:55,120
Is that it?

321
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:57,760
Where did I mess up?

322
00:38:58,040 --> 00:38:58,940
Did I?

323
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:10,300
Uh, this should have been plus one right here, yeah?

324
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:15,440
And then this becomes minus one.

325
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:16,780
There we go.

326
00:39:16,780 --> 00:39:20,540
Now these cancel out.

327
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:33,260
Is that all we got left?

328
00:39:34,940 --> 00:39:35,840
More rh.

329
00:39:35,620 --> 00:39:40,520
And we factor out an h.

330
00:39:51,980 --> 00:39:57,780
We get negative 2t plus 2.

331
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:16,580
And then we wanted that V equals, or T equals 3.

332
00:40:19,240 --> 00:40:25,760
Negative 2 times 3 plus 2 times 6, negative 4.

333
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:29,360
And again we said it's gallons per hour.

334
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:41,440
The negative rate means the volume is decreasing at 4 gallons per hour.

335
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:42,340
per hour.

336
00:40:43,980 --> 00:40:49,320
Okay, so all the derivatives for homework tonight.

337
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:53,000
Alright, you gotta use either of the definitions.

338
00:40:56,380 --> 00:40:57,280
Can you use the power rule?

339
00:40:58,360 --> 00:40:59,840
I have no idea what the power rule is.

340
00:41:01,500 --> 00:41:03,040
We gotta use the definition.

341
00:41:05,060 --> 00:41:07,460
We will learn some shortcuts later on.

342
00:41:08,820 --> 00:41:10,640
With the homework we gotta use the definition.

343
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:11,540
Okay, the uh...
