In other words, some changed faster than others. If we were to graph the functions, we could compare the rates by determining the slopes of the graphs.

Underlying all of these topics is the concept of a limit, which consists of analyzing the behavior of a function at points ever closer to a particular point, but without ever actually reaching that point. Calculus has two basic applications: differential calculus and integral calculus.

In this section, we will investigate methods for determining the domain and range of functions.

Solve by clearing the fractions, expanding the right side, collecting like terms, and setting corresponding coefficients equal to each other, then setting up and solving a system of equations. The decomposition with repeated linear factors must account for the factors of the denominator in increasing powers. The decomposition with a nonrepeated irreducible quadratic factor needs a linear numerator over the quadratic factor.

For polar coordinates, the point in the plane depends on the angle from the positive x-axis and distance from the origin, while in Cartesian coordinates, the point represents the horizontal and vertical distances from the origin.

As p is the least of all sums x+m, p-m is the least of all x \in A ; so p-m=\min A exists, as claimed.

The mean of the sample means will equal the population mean. The standard deviation of the distribution of the sample means, called the standard error of the mean, is equal to the population standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size (n).
