LP Demo Shs Basic Calculus
I. Objective:
At the end of 60 minutes, the students are expected to apply the differentiation rules in
computing the derivative of an algebraic function.
III. Procedure:
A) Preliminaries
* Prayer
* Checking of Attendance
* Classroom Standards
* Motivation: Let the students arrange the letters and form a word.
1) T I D E I R V E V A 3) U N F C I N T O S
2) L A R E I G A C B 4) C A N T S O T N
Answer:
1) DERIVATIVE 3) FUNCTIONS
2) ALGEBRAIC 4) CONSTANT
B) Review:
Ask 2 students to state a chosen differentiation rule.
Differentiation rules:
i. If c is a constant and if f(x) = c for all x, then f’(x) = 0
ii. If n is a positive integer and if f(x) = xⁿ, then f’(x) = n xⁿ⁻¹
iii. If f is a function, c is a constant, and g is the function defined by
g(x) = c . f(x) then if f(x) exists, g’(x) = c . f’(x)
iv. If f and g are functions and if h is the function defined by
h(x) = f(x) + g(x) then if f’(x) and g’(x) exist h’(x) = f’(x) + g’(x)
Illustration: Use the rules in evaluating the following: (I do)
a) If f(x) = 5 then f’(x) = 0
b) If f(x) = x⁸ then f’(x) = 8x⁷
c) If f(x) = 5x⁷ then f’(x) = 5(7) x⁶ = 35x⁶
d) If f(x) = 7x⁴ – 2x³ + 8x + 5 then f’(x) = Dx( 7x⁴ – 2x³ + 8x + 5 )
f’(x) = Dx(7x⁴) +Dx(-2x³) +Dx(8x) +Dx(5)
f’(x) = 7(4) X³+ (-2)(3)X²+ 8(1)X°+0
f’(x) =28X³-6X²+8
Group work: (We do)
The class will be divided into 3 and each group will be given task to do.
The rubrics will be presented first before the activity begins.
IV. Evaluation
V. Assignment
Solve the derivative of the following:
