PREFACE

ABOUT CALCULUS

On Teaching Mathematics I consider myself very lucky to have a career as a teacher and practitioner of mathematics. When I was young, I decided I wanted to be a writer. I loved telling stories. But I was also good at math, and, once in college, it didn’t take me long to become enamored with it. I loved the fact that success in mathematics does not depend on your presentation skills or your interpersonal relationships. You are either right or you are wrong and there is little subjective evaluation involved. And I loved the satisfaction of coming up with a solution. That intensified when I started solving problems that were open research questions that had previously remained unsolved.

So, I became a professor of mathematics. And I soon realized that teaching mathe- matics is about telling a story. The goal is to explain to students in an intriguing manner, at the right pace, and in as clear a way as possible, how mathematics works and what it can do for you. I find mathematics immensely beautiful. I want students to feel that way, too.

On Writing a Calculus Text I had always thought I might write a calculus text. But that is a daunting task. These days, calculus books average over a thousand pages. And I would need to convince myself that I had something to offer that was different enough from what already appears in the existing books. Then, I was approached about writing the third edition of Jon Rogawski’s calculus book. Here was a book for which I already had great respect. Jon’s vision of what a calculus book should be fit very closely with my own. Jon believed that as math teachers, how we say it is as important as what we say. Although he insisted on rigor at all times, he also wanted a book that was written in plain English, a book that could be read and that would entice students to read further and learn more. Moreover, Jon strived to create a text in which exposition, graphics, and layout would work together to enhance all facets of a student’s calculus experience.

In writing his book, Jon paid special attention to certain aspects of the text:

1. Clear, accessible exposition that anticipates and addresses student difficulties. 2. Layout and figures that communicate the flow of ideas. 3. Highlighted features that emphasize concepts and mathematical reasoning: Conceptual Insight, Graphical Insight, Assumptions Matter, Reminder, and Historical Perspective.

4. A rich collection of examples and exercises of graduated difficulty that teach basic skills, problem-solving techniques, reinforce conceptual understanding, and motivate cal- culus through interesting applications. Each section also contains exercises that develop additional insights and challenge students to further develop their skills.

Coming into the project of creating the third edition, I was somewhat apprehensive. Here was an already excellent book that had attained the goals set for it by its author. First and foremost, I wanted to be sure that I did it no harm. On the other hand, I have been teaching calculus now for 30 years, and in that time, I have come to some conclusions about what does and does not work well for students.

As a mathematician, I want to make sure that the theorems, proofs, arguments and development are correct. There is no place in mathematics for sloppiness of any kind. As a teacher, I want the material to be accessible. The book should not be written at the mathematical level of the instructor. Students should be able to use the book to learn the material, with the help of their instructor. Working from the high standard that Jon set, I have tried hard to maintain the level of quality of the previous edition while making the changes that I believe will bring the book to the next level.

PREFACE vii

Placement of Taylor Polynomials Taylor polynomials appear in Chapter 8, before infinite series in Chapter 10. The goal here is to present Taylor polynomials as a natural extension of linear approximation. When teaching infinite series, the primary focus is on convergence, a topic that many students find challenging. By the time we have covered the basic convergence tests and studied the convergence of power series, students are ready to tackle the issues involved in representing a function by its Taylor series. They can then rely on their previous work with Taylor polynomials and the error bound from Chapter 8. However, the section on Taylor polynomials is written so that you can cover this topic together with the materials on infinite series if this order is preferred.

Careful, Precise Development W. H. Freeman is committed to high quality and precise textbooks and supplements. From this project’s inception and throughout its development and production, quality and precision have been given significant priority. We have in place unparalleled procedures to ensure the accuracy of the text:

• Exercises and Examples • Exposition • Figures • Editing • Composition

Together, these procedures far exceed prior industry standards to safeguard the quality and precision of a calculus textbook.

New to the Third Edition There are a variety of changes that have been implemented in this edition. Following are some of the most important.

MORE FOCUS ON CONCEPTS The emphasis has been shifted to focus less on the memo- rization of specific formulas, and more on understanding the underlying concepts. Memo- rization can never be completely avoided, but it is in no way the crux of calculus. Students will remember how to apply a procedure or technique if they see the logical progression that generates it. And they then understand the underlying concepts rather than seeing the topic as a black box in which you insert numbers. Specific examples include:

• (Section 1.2) Removed the general formula for the completion of a square and instead, emphasized the method so students need not memorize the formula.

• (Section 7.2) Changed the methods for evaluating trigonometric integrals to focus on techniques to apply rather than formulas to memorize.

• (Chapter 9) Discouraged the memorization of solutions of specific types of differ- ential equations and instead, encouraged the use of methods of solution.

• (Section 12.2) Decreased number of formulas for parametrizing a line from two to one, as the second can easily be derived from the first.

• (Section 12.6) De-emphasized the memorization of the various formulas for quadric surfaces. Instead, moved the focus to slicing with planes to find curves and using those to determine the shape of the surface. These methods will be useful regardless of the type of surface it is.

• (Section 14.4) Decreased the number of essential formulas for linear approximation of functions of two variables from four to two, providing the background to derive the others from these.

CHANGES IN NOTATION There are numerous notational changes. Some were made to bring the notation more into line with standard usage in mathematics and other fields in which mathematics is applied. Some were implemented to make it easier for students to remember the meaning of the notation. Some were made to help make the corresponding concepts that are represented more transparent. Specific examples include:

viii PREFACE

• (Section 4.6) Presented a new notation for graphing that gives the signs of the first and second derivative and then simple symbols (slanted up and down arrows and up and down u’s) to help the student keep track of when the graph is increasing or decreasing and concave up or concave down over the given interval.

• (Section 7.1) Simplified the notation for integration by parts and provided a visual method for remembering it.

• (Chapter 10) Changed names of the various tests for convergence/divergence of infinite series to evoke the usage of the test and thereby make it easier for students to remember them.

• (Chapters 13–17) Rather than using c(t) for a path, we consistently switched to the vector-valued function r(t). This also allowed us to replace ds with dr as a differential, which means there is less likely to be confusion with ds, dS and dS.

MORE EXPLANATIONS OF DERIVATIONS Occasionally, in the previous edition, a result was given and verified, without motivating where the derivation came from. I believe it is important for students to understand how someone might come up with a particular result, thereby helping them to picture how they might themselves one day be able to derive results.

• (Section 14.4) Developed the equation of the tangent plane in a manner that makes geometric sense.

• (Section 14.5) Included a proof of the fact the gradient of a function f of three variables is orthogonal to the surfaces that are the level sets of f .

• (Section 14.8) Gave an intuitive explanation for why the Method of Lagrange Multipliers works.

• (Section 15.5) Developed the center of mass formulas by first discussing the one- dimensional case of a seesaw.

REORDERING AND ADDING TOPICS There were some specific rearrangements among the sections and additions. These include:

• A subsection on piecewise-defined functions has been added to Section 1.3. • The section on implicit differentiation in Chapter 3 (previously Section 3.10) has

been moved up to become Section 3.8 and has absorbed the previous Section 3.8 (in- verse functions) so that implicit differentiation can be applied to derive the various derivatives as necessary.

• The section on indefinite integrals (previously Section 4.9) has been moved from Chapter 4 (Applications of the Derivative) to Chapter 5 (The Integral). This is a more natural placement for it.

• A new section on choosing from amongst the various methods of integration has been added to Chapter 7.

• A subsection on choosing the appropriate convergence/divergence test has been added to Section 10.5.

• An explanation of how to find indefinite limits using power series has been added to Section 10.6.

• The definitions of divergence and curl have been moved from Chapter 17 to Section 16.1. This allows us to utilize them at an appropriate earlier point in the text.

• A list all of the different types of integrals that have been introduced in Chapter 16 has been added to Section 16.5.

• A subsection on the Vector Form of Green’s Theorem has been added to Section 17.1.

NEW EXAMPLES, FIGURES, AND EXERCISES Numerous examples and accompanying figures have been added to clarify concepts. A variety of exercises have also been added throughout the text, particularly where new applications are available or further conceptual development is advantageous. Figures marked with a icon have been made dynamic and can be accessed via LaunchPad. A selection of these figures also includes brief tutorial videos explaining the concepts at work.

FEATURES

CONCEPTUAL INSIGHT Leibniz notation is widely used for several reasons. First, it re- minds us that the derivative df/dx, although not itself a ratio, is in fact a limit of ratios

. Second, the notation specifies the independent variable. This is useful when variables other than x are used. For example, if the independent variable is t , we write df/dt . Third, we often think of d/dx as an “operator” that performs differentiation on functions. In other words, we apply the operator d/dx to f to obtain the derivative df/dx. We will see other advantages of Leibniz notation when we discuss the Chain Rule in Section 3.7.

Ch. 3, p. 123

Conceptual Insights encourage students to develop a conceptual understanding of calculus by explaining important ideas clearly but informally.

GRAPHICAL INSIGHT Can we visualize the rate represented by f (x)? The second derivative is the rate at which f (x) is changing, so f (x) is large if the slopes of the tangent lines change rapidly, as in Figure 3(A). Similarly, f (x) is small if the slopes of the tangent lines change slowly—in this case, the curve is relatively flat, as in Figure 3(B). If f is a linear function [Figure 3(C)], then the tangent line does not change at all and f (x) = 0. Thus, f (x) measures the “bending” or concavity of the graph.

(A) Large second derivative: Tangent lines turn rapidly.

(B) Smaller second derivative: Tangent lines turn slowly.

(C) Second derivative is zero: Tangent line does not change.

FIGURE 3 Ch. 3, p. 153

Graphical Insights enhance students’ visual understanding by making the crucial connections between graphical properties and the underlying concepts.

FEATURES xi

EXAMPLE 3 Evaluate sin2 x dx.

Solution We could apply the reduction formula Eq. (5) from the last section. However, instead, we apply a method that does not rely on knowing that formula. We utilize the trigonometric identity called the double angle formula sin2 x = 12 (1 − cos 2x). Then

sin2 x dx = 1 2 (1 − cos 2x) dx = x

2 − sin 2x

4 + C

Using the trigonometric identities in the margin, we can also integrate cos2 x, obtain- ing the following:REMINDER Useful Identities:

sin2 x = 1 2 (1 − cos 2x)

cos2 x = 1 2 (1 + cos 2x)

sin 2x = 2 sin x cos x

cos 2x = cos2 x − sin2 x

sin2 x dx = x 2

− sin 2x 4

+ C = x 2

sin x cos x + C 1

cos2 x dx = x 2

+ sin 2x 4

+ C = x 2

+ 1 2

sin x cos x + C 2

Ch. 7, p. 380

Reminders are margin notes that link the current discussion to important concepts introduced earlier in the text to give students a quick review and make connections with related ideas.

EXAMPLE 1 Use L’Hôpital’s Rule to evaluate lim x→2

x3 − 8 x4 + 2x − 20 .

Solution Let f (x) = x3 − 8 and g(x) = x4 + 2x − 20. Both f and g are differentiable and f (x)/g(x) is indeterminate of type 0/0 at a = 2 because f (2) = g(2) = 0:

• Numerator: f (2) = 23 − 1 = 0 • Denominator: g(2) = 24 + 2(2) − 20 = 0

Furthermore, g (x) = 4x3 + 2 is nonzero near x = 2, so L’Hôpital’s Rule applies. We may replace the numerator and denominator by their derivatives to obtain

CAUTION When using L’Hôpital’s Rule, be sure to take the derivative of the numerator and denominator separately:

lim x→a

f (x)

g(x) = lim

x→a f (x)

g (x)

Do not differentiate the quotient function y = f (x)/g(x).

lim x→2

x3 − 8 x4 + 2x − 2 = limx→2

(x3 − 8) (x4 + 2x − 2)

L’Hôpital’s Rule

= lim x→2

3x2

4x3 + 2 = 3(22)

4(23) + 2 = 12 34

= 6 17

Historical Perspectives are brief vignettes that place key discoveries and conceptual advances in their historical context. They give students a glimpse into some of the accomplishments of great mathematicians and an appreciation for their significance.

HISTORICAL

PERSPECTIVE

(Mechanics Magazine London, 1824)

Geometric series were used as early as the third century bce by Archimedes in a brilliant argu- ment for determining the area S of a “parabolic segment” (shaded region in Figure 3). Given two points A and C on a parabola, there is a point B between A and C where the tangent line is paral- lel to AC (apparently, Archimedes was aware of the Mean Value Theorem more than 2000 years before the invention of calculus). Let T be the area of triangle ABC. Archimedes proved that if D is chosen in a similar fashion relative to AB and E is chosen relative to BC, then

1 4 T = Area( ADB) + Area( BEC) 6

This construction of triangles can be continued. The next step would be to construct the four tri- angles on the segments AD, DB, BE, EC, of

total area 14 2 T . Then construct eight triangles

of total area 14 3 T , etc. In this way, we obtain in-

finitely many triangles that completely fill up the parabolic segment. By the formula for the sum of a geometric series, we get

S = T + 1 4 T + 1

16 T + · · · = T

n=0

1 4n

= 4 3 T

For this and many other achievements, Archi-

medes is ranked together with Newton and Gauss as one of the greatest scientists of all time.

The modern study of infinite series began in the seventeenth century with Newton, Leib- niz, and their contemporaries. The divergence

of ∞

n=1 1/n (called the harmonic series) was

known to the medieval scholar Nicole d’Oresme (1323–1382), but his proof was lost for cen- turies, and the result was rediscovered on more than one occasion. It was also known that the

sum of the reciprocal squares ∞

n=1 1/n2 con-

verges, and in the 1640s, the Italian Pietro Men- goli put forward the challenge of finding its sum. Despite the efforts of the best mathematicians of the day, including Leibniz and the Bernoulli brothers Jakob and Johann, the problem resisted solution for nearly a century. In 1735 the great master Leonhard Euler (at the time, 28 years old) astonished his contemporaries by proving that

This formula, surprising in itself, plays a role in a variety of mathematical fields. A theorem from number theory states that two whole num- bers, chosen randomly, have no common factor with probability 6/π2 ≈ 0.6 (the reciprocal of Euler’s result). On the other hand, Euler’s re- sult and its generalizations appear in the field of statistical mechanics.

Assumptions Matter uses short explanations and well-chosen counterexamples to help students appreciate why hypotheses are needed in theorems.

EXAMPLE 3 Assumptions Matter Show that the Product Law cannot be applied to lim x→0

f (x)g(x) if f (x) = x and g(x) = x−1.

Solution For all x = 0, we have f (x)g(x) = x · x−1 = 1, so the limit of the product exists:

lim x→0

f (x)g(x) = lim x→0

1 = 1

However, lim x→0

x−1 does not exist because g(x) = x−1 approaches ∞ as x → 0+ and it approaches −∞ as x → 0−. Therefore, the Product Law cannot be applied and its conclusion does not hold:

lim x→0

f (x) lim x→0

g(x) = lim x→0

x lim x→0

x−1

Does not exist Ch. 2, p. 74

T he creation of this third edition could not have happened without the help of many people. First, I want to thank the individualswhom I have worked with at W. H. Freeman. Terri Ward and Ruth Baruth convinced me that I should take on this project, and I am grateful to them for their support and their confidence in my ability to tackle it. Throughout this process, Terri has been a huge help. I can always count on her to keep this train on track. Katrina Wilhelm has also been an amazing resource. She brings calm competence and organizational skills that constantly impress me. Tony Palermino has provided expert editorial help throughout the process. He is incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of mathematics textbooks and has an eye for the details that make a book work. Kerry O’Shaughnessy kept the production process moving forward in a timely manner without ever resorting to threats. John Rogosich was the superb compositor. Patti Brecht handled the copyediting in an expert manner. My thanks are also due to W. H. Freeman’s superb production team: Janice Donnola, Eileen Liang, Blake Logan, Paul Rohloff, and to Ron Weickart at Network Graphics for his skilled and creative execution of the art program.

Many faculty gave critical feedback on the second edition, and their names appear above. I am deeply grateful to them. I do want to particularly thank all of the advisory board members who gave me feedback month after month. Maria Shea Terrell continually sent me excellent unsolicited feedback until I asked to have her on the board. Then it became solicited. The accuracy reviewers, John Alongi, CK Cheung, Kwai-Lee Chui, John Davis, John Eggers, Stephen Greenfield, Roger Lipsett, Vivek Narayanan, and Olga Radko, helped to bring the final version into the form in which it now appears. You think you have found the errors, but you have not.

I also want to thank my colleagues in the Mathematics and Statistics Department at Williams College. I have always known I am incredibly lucky to be a member of this department. There are so many interesting projects and clever pedagogical ideas coming out of the department that it motivates me just because I am trying to keep up.

I would further like to thank my students. Their enthusiasm is what makes teaching fun. I enjoy coming to work every day, and they are what make it such a pleasure.

Finally, I want to thank my two children, Alexa and Colton. They are the ones who keep me grounded, who remind me what works and what doesn’t in the real world. This book is dedicated to them.

1 PRECALCULUS REVIEW

C alculus builds on the foundation of algebra, analytic geometry, and trigonometry. Inthis chapter, therefore, we review some concepts, facts, and formulas from precalculus that are used throughout the text. In the last section, we discuss ways in which technology can be used to enhance your visual understanding of functions and their properties.

1.1 Real Numbers, Functions, and Graphs We begin with a short discussion of real numbers. This gives us the opportunity to recall some basic properties and standard notation.

A real number is a number represented by a decimal or “decimal expansion.” There are three types of decimal expansions: finite, repeating, and infinite but nonrepeating. For example,

3 8

= 0.375, 1 7

= 0.142857142857 . . . = 0.142857

π = 3.141592653589793 . . . The number 38 is represented by a finite decimal, whereas

1 7 is represented by a repeatingor

periodic decimal. The bar over 142857 indicates that this sequence repeats indefinitely. The decimal expansion of π is infinite but nonrepeating.

The set of all real numbers is denoted by a boldface R. When there is no risk of confusion, we refer to a real number simply as a number. We also use the standard symbol ∈ for the phrase “belongs to.” Thus,

a ∈ R reads “a belongs to R” The set of integers is commonly denoted by the letter Z (this choice comes from theAdditional properties of real numbers are

discussed in Appendix B. German word Zahl, meaning “number”). Thus, Z = {. . . , −2, −1, 0, 1, 2, . . . }. A whole number is a nonnegative integer—that is, one of the numbers 0, 1, 2, . . . .

A real number is called rational if it can be represented by a fraction p/q, where p and q are integers with q ̸= 0. The set of rational numbers is denoted Q (for “quotient”). Numbers that are not rational, such as π and

√ 2, are called irrational.

We can tell whether a number is rational from its decimal expansion: Rational numbers have finite or repeating decimal expansions, and irrational numbers have infinite, non- repeating decimal expansions. Furthermore, the decimal expansion of a number is unique, apart from the following exception: Every finite decimal is equal to an infinite decimal in which the digit 9 repeats. For example,

1 = 0.999 . . . , 3 8

= 0.375 = 0.374999 . . . , 47 20

= 2.35 = 2.34999 . . .

We visualize real numbers as points on a line (Figure 1). For this reason, real numbers are often referred to as points. The point corresponding to 0 is called the origin.
