Math Problem Statement
Which two fundamental concepts of Calculus are inverses of each other? Select the two correct answers.
Question 6Select one or more:
a.
Exponents
b.
Factors
c.
Logarithms
d.
Limits
e.
Derivatives
f.
Integrals
Solution
The two fundamental concepts of calculus that are inverses of each other are:
e. Derivatives
f. Integrals
Explanation
In calculus, the derivative of a function gives the rate at which the function is changing at any given point, while the integral of a function provides the accumulation of quantities, which can be thought of as the area under the curve of the function. The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus establishes that these two operations are inverses of each other.
Fundamental Theorem of Calculus:
- First part: If is an antiderivative of on an interval , then
- Second part: If is continuous on , then the function defined by for in , is continuous on , differentiable on , and .
