    Based on the Leibniz notation, is it accurate to say that the derivative of a function f(x) is simply the differential of 'f' divided by the differential of 'x'?

    • @thegreatzoom5073
      @thegreatzoom5073 3 роки тому

      Yes, but you can also say it's the ratio of change in f to the change in x, or the ratio of the change in output to a change in input. Same thing as dividing, but saying ratio is a little more intuitive imo.

  • @ChazinSthl
    @ChazinSthl 5 років тому

    Since it’s a differential, technically shouldn’t df be the distance to the tangent line drawn at the spot marked rather than the actual function?

    • @JoaoJGabriel
      @JoaoJGabriel 2 роки тому

      He's taking "df" as an abstraction for change in f rather than the literal differential. It might seem confusing, but it helps to get the idea without diving in the concept of the limit at first.
      If you draw a line that passes through the (x,y) in the function before the change in x, and the point (x,y) in the function after the change, you get a slope between them, right?
      When dx is not just any change in x and it's actually a derivative, meaning it approaches zero, the distance between them is so negligable that df is practically at the tangent. Both are interchangeable in this case, but they don't hold the same meaning, you see?
      The distance to a tangent line is not the definition of what a differential is. It happens to be the case for 2 dimensions, but it doesn't help with higher dimensions.

  • @snackbob100
    @snackbob100 4 роки тому

    I think the thing that is a little confusing for me here is the choice of variable y and x, with f(x) as the output. y is usually denoted as an output in the examples I've seen, but here it is just another input variable, that is also dependent on x? what is even more confusing is that on the graph, should it now show a 3d graph with x and y as the horizontal dimensions x and z and the vertical as the output? It would be great if someone could identify the cause of my misunderstanding
    I like the explanation of notation however, very few videos do this, and they just jump straight in.

    • @ycombinator765
      @ycombinator765 4 роки тому +1

      Your question is penomenal! I had thr same thought. If you have gotten the answer please reply back to me as well! Thanks
      [edit]: Ok i am back with an explanation. You are right with your objection. But 3b1b is right too. The fact is that we all actually forget that there is a difference between IMPLICIT and PARTIAL differentiation. 3b1b is discussing partial differentiation here where the equation is defined via 2 or more variables and resultant curve is in 3 or more dimensions BUT implicit differentiation features only one function and one variable but the problem here is that the x variable and y variable are intact and cannot be separated therefore we use implicit differentiation to solve for tangentt line of the curve.
      Hope this helped

      No.

      Whereas what ∂f/∂x is saying is "how f changes in proportion to how x changes when all variables of f, except x, are fixed" (which could also be true to functions with more than 2 variables).
      It's basically "how the rate of change of x in isolation contributes to the rate of change of f"

    If the 19th century brick and mortar educational model was a superior teaching process every student could receive an A+. The long history of education shows that this is not the case. To hide failings in the system the concept of grades is used to mask its flaws. If a 100% understanding of the material was required, students would drop out of the system and it would collapse financially. Instead of a system designed to pass information from instructor to student, the time honored educational process is treated as a sporting event. The major flaw in the 19th century system is there is no opportunity to rewind a classroom lecture until it is completely understood. If a student receives a B in a course the reality is that 20% of the material was not understood. Online courses, such as this one, offer the student a chance to understand all of the material.
