Formulas
A = πr²
A represents the area of a circle, and r is its radius. This formula is used to calculate the area enclosed by a circular boundary.
V = x³
V represents the volume of a cube, and x is the length of a side. It is used to determine how much space is taken up by the cube.
S = 6x²
S represents the surface area of a cube, where x is the length of a side. This formula helps in finding the total area covered by the faces of the cube.
C(x) = 0.005x³ – 0.02x² + 30x + 5000
C(x) represents the total cost associated with producing x units. This formula is applied in cost analysis within production.
R(x) = 3x² + 36x + 5
R(x) denotes the total revenue from selling x units. Understanding revenue helps in evaluating business performance.
P(x) = R(x) - C(x)
P(x) shows the profit function derived from revenue subtracted by cost. It is crucial for determining financial outcomes.
dA/dt = 2πr(dr/dt)
This formula calculates the rate of change of area (A) of a circle with respect to time (t). It helps to measure how area increases as the radius changes over time.
dV/dt = 3x²(dx/dt)
This gives the rate of change of volume (V) of a cube with respect to time. It enables finding how volume varies when the side length changes.
f'(x) = 0 (Critical Point)
Indicates potential locations of local maxima or minima. It is essential in finding turning points of functions.
f''(x) < 0 (Local Maximum)
If the second derivative at a critical point is negative, it indicates that the function is concave down, confirming a local maximum.
Equations
dy/dx = limit(h → 0) [f(x+h) - f(x)]/h
This definition represents the derivative of a function f at a point x, showing the slope of the tangent line.
A = (1/2) * (b1 + b2) * h
A is the area of a trapezium with bases b1 and b2 and height h. It finds use in geometry related to polygons.
dP/dx = dR/dx - dC/dx
This equation derives the marginal profit by differentiating revenue (R) and cost (C) functions.
V = (1/3)πr²h
Volume formula for a cone, where r is the base radius and h is height. Useful in calculating the capacity of conical shapes.
dS/dt = 2(6)(dS/dx)(dx/dt)
This shows how the surface area changes over time when the side length of a cube is varying.
y = x² – 4
This is a simple quadratic equation, which helps in illustrating concepts like vertex, axis of symmetry, and maximum/minimum values.
x = 2 + 3πt
Parametric equation determining a line over time, modeling linear movement in calculus applications.
f'(x) = 0 (x = c)
This indicates critical points; finding where the slope is zero is essential for locating local extrema.
f(x) = ax² + bx + c
Standard form of a quadratic function; useful in determining vertex and intercepts, applicable in optimization problems.
d^2y/dx^2 < 0
Conditions for identifying concavity; helps in confirming local maximum behavior around critical points.
