We'll look at the derivatives of other basic functions this week - logarithms (you're welcome Sahsa), trig, and inverse trig before moving on to higher order derivatives. That'll give us the basics to begin to look at how we use these ideas (a huge number of other functions are compositions and combinations of the ones we've seen). So it's time for a test - which we'll have next Monday, 9/26, covering Chapters 17&18 (mostly 18). See you in class,
Mr. Alei
