Course specific prerequisites
Elementary knowledge in algebra corresponding to the course MVE675 Algebra.Aim
The course should, in a coherent way, give basic knowledge of calculus. The course will also facilitate mathematical treatment of technical problems in the profession and provide basic knowledge for further studies.Learning outcomes (after completion of the course the student should be able to)
- define the concepts of limit and continuity and compute limits
- define the concepts of derivative and differentiation and use the definition of derivative to calculate the derivatives of elementary functions
- use the definition of derivative and the fundamental rules of differentiation to compute derivatives
- outline the elementary functions and account for their properties
- define the concepts of increasing (decreasing) function and local maximum (minimum) value
- construct graphs of functions and calculate the absolute maximum (minimum) value of a function
- define the concept of inverse function, calculate inverse functions and their derivatives
- approximate functions by Taylor polynomials
- use and combine different concepts in problem solving
Content
Theory of sets Algebraic equations Algebraic simplifications Inequalities Absolute value The circle and the ellipse The concept of a function Exponential- and logarithmic functions Derivative, rules of differentiation Implicit differentiation Tangent and normal Limits Continuity Derivative, differentiable functions Increasing and decreasing functions Local maximum och minimum Extreme-value problems Inverse function The inverse trigonometric functions Derivatives of the elementary functions Asymptotes, construction of the graph of a function Growth of exponentials and logarithms Antiderivatives.Organisation

Written exam. Voluntary written test that can provide bonus points for the exam can occur.The course examiner may assess individual students in other ways than what is stated above if there are special reasons for doing so, for example if a student has a decision from Chalmers on educational support due to disability.
