Title: The Derivative as a Function


1
The Derivative as a Function
We considered the derivative a function f at a
number a
Now let the number a vary. Replace a with x and
we obtain

The Derivative as a Function
Note using the traditional notation y f (x) the
independent variable is x and the dependent
variable is y.
We have a number of other notations to define the
derivative.
