Read articleThe Ratio Test is a very nice tool to use for determining whether or not a series converges, but it can get a bit complicated. Here it is: If we have a series \(\sum a_n\), let there be a number \(L = \lim_{n\to\infty} \left|\dfrac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\right|\). – If \(L < 1\), the series converges absolutely. – If…
Read articleBecause an integral is, in essence, the inverse function to a derivative, the integral of \(\cos x\) is going to be the function whose derivative is equal to \(\cos x\). To do this, let’s look at the derivatives for the basic trigonometric functions: \[ \frac{d}{dx}(\sin x) = \cos x \] \[ \frac{d}{dx}(\cos x) = -\sin…
Read articleHave you ever wondered how to take the derivative of an exponential function like \(2^x\) or \(4^{3x^2}\)? In this article, we will derive the formula for taking the derivative of any exponential function whatsoever. Derivation of the Formula In order to derive the formula for the derivative of an exponential function, we first need to…
