2-3: Product / Quotient Rules & Other Derivatives

©2002 Roy L. Gover (www.mrgover.com)

Objectives:•Learn and use the

product & quotient rules.•Derive derivatives of trignometric functions.•Use higher-order derivatives.

Important IdeaThe derivative of the product is not the product of the derivatives.

Product Rule

(Rule extends to cover more than 2 factors)if j(x) = f(x)g(x)h(x) then

j'(x) = f '(x)g(x)h(x) + f(x)g'(x)h(x) + f(x)g(x)h'(x)

The Product RuleThe derivative of the product of two functions is the first function times the derivative of the second plus the second function times the derivative of the first.

Important Idea

Be sure you simplify your answers by at least:

•combining like terms•eliminating negative exponents

Try ThisFind the derivative:

Can you use a method other than the product rule?

Example

In this example, you must use the product rule.

Important Idea

The derivative of a quotient is not the quotient of the derivatives.

The Quotient RuleThe derivative of a quotient is the denominator times the derivative of the numerator minus the numerator times the derivative of the denominator all divided by the denominator squared.

Important IdeaThe first derivative represents a rate of change. The second derivative represents the rate of change of the rate of change. In physics, the first derivative is velocity; the second derivative is acceleration.
