In summary, differentiation is a mathematical concept that involves finding the rate of change of a function with respect to its independent variable. Its main purpose is to analyze and understand the behavior of a function and solve optimization problems. It differs from integration, which involves finding the area under a curve. The basic rules of differentiation include the power rule, product rule, quotient rule, and chain rule, and it has many applications in fields such as physics, economics, engineering, and biology.

[tex]g(t)=t\sqrt{4-t},t<3[/tex]
[tex]g'(t)=t[1/2(4-t)^-1/2 (-1)]+(4-t)^1/2[/tex]

You got it Josh. Here's it is in LaTex. Just click on it to see the code:

[tex]g^{'}(t)=\frac{-t}{2\sqrt{4-t}}+\sqrt{4-t}[/tex]
 

FAQ: What is the Differentiation Problem for the Function g(t)=t√(4-t)?

What is differentiation?

Differentiation is a mathematical concept that involves finding the rate of change of a function with respect to its independent variable. It is used to calculate the slope or gradient of a curve at a specific point.

What is the purpose of differentiation?

The main purpose of differentiation is to analyze and understand the behavior of a function. It is also used to solve optimization problems, such as finding maximum or minimum values of a function.

What is the difference between differentiation and integration?

Differentiation and integration are two inverse operations in calculus. Differentiation involves finding the rate of change of a function, while integration involves finding the area under a curve.

What are the basic rules of differentiation?

The basic rules of differentiation include the power rule, product rule, quotient rule, and chain rule. These rules are used to find the derivative of more complex functions.

What are the applications of differentiation?

Differentiation has numerous applications in various fields such as physics, economics, engineering, and biology. It is used in optimization problems, curve sketching, and modeling real-world phenomena.
