58GEOMETRIC INTERPRETATION OF THE CONSTANT
MULTIPLE RULE
Multiplying by c2 stretches the graph vertically
by a factor of 2. All the rises have been doubled
but the runs stay the same. So the slopes are
doubled, too.

59 Using prime notation, we can write the Sum Rule
as (fg)fg

and F f?g is the composite function defined by

78WARNING A common error is to substitute the
given numerical information (for quantities that
vary with time) too early. This should be done
only after the differentiation.
Chapter 2, 2.7, P129
79- Steps in solving related rates problems
- Read the problem carefully.
- Draw a diagram if possible.
- Introduce notation. Assign symbols to all
quantities that are functions of time. - Express the given information and the required
rate in terms of derivatives. - Write an equation that relates the various
quantities of the problem. If necessary, use the
geometry of the situation to eliminate one of the
variables by substitution (as in Example 3). - Use the Chain Rule to differentiate both sides of
the equation with respect to t. - Substitute the given information into the
resulting equation and solve for the unknown rate.

81f(x) f(a)f(a)(x-a)
Is called the linear approximation or tangent
line approximation of f at a.

82The linear function whose graph is this tangent
line, that is , is called the linearization
of f at a.

83The differential dy is then defined in terms of
dx by the equation. So dy is a dependent
variable it depends on the values of x and dx.
If dx is given a specific value and x is taken to
be some specific number in the domain of f, then
the numerical value of dy is determined.
