logarithmic differentiation pt.2
In previous pencasts, I explore the usefulness of logarithmic differentiation. What if you come across an equation that not only involves logarithms, but trigonometric functions? In this pencast, I go over ways to solve these kinds of problems. logarithmic differentiation … Continue reading
advanced logarithmic differentiation
Logarithmic differentiation isn’t only useful for problems involving population growth, or other scientific-related topics. Sometimes the method can be used as a special trick to solve problems that don’t necessarily involve logarithms. advanced logarithmic differentiationbrought to you by Livescribe
logarithmic differentiation pt.1
In this pencast, I explore some of the uses of logarithmic differentiation. These techniques are particularly applicable to chemistry, as these techniques help us understand how chemical reactions work! logarithmic differentiation pt.1brought to you by Livescribe
Integrating Trigonometric and Exponential Functions
The power rule is of no use when it comes to antidiffernetiation. In these circumstances, you need to know special rules and procedures in order to evaluate the interval of a definite or indefinite integral. integrating trig and exp funcsbrought … Continue reading
Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
The “Fundamental Theorem of Calculus” may sound intimidating, but it’s pretty easy to apply. All it describes is how to evaluate an integral over a given span along the x-axis. Finding the antiderivative of the function is, like before, simple. … Continue reading
