Definition of a definite integral

$$\int_a^b f(x) \, dx = \lim_{n \to \infty} \sum_{k=1}^n f(x_k) \cdot (\Delta x_k)$$

Definition of a Critical Number

Let f be defined at c. If f'(c) = 0 or if f' is undefined at c, then c is a critical number of f.

First Derivative Test - Relative Minimum

If f'(x) changes from negative to positive at c, then (c, f(c)) is a relative minimum of f.

First Derivative Test - Relative Maximum

If f'(x) changes from positive to negative at c, then (c, f(c)) is a relative maximum of f.

Definition of Concavity

Let f be differentiable on an open interval I. The graph of f is concave upward on I if f' is increasing on the interval and concave downward on I if f' is decreasing on the interval.

Test for Concavity - Concave Upward

If f''(x) > 0 for all x in I, then the graph of f is concave upward in I.

Definition of an Inflection Point

A function f has an inflection point at (c, f(c)) if f''(c) = 0 or f''(c) does not exist and f'' changes sign at x = c.

Second Fundamental Theorem of Calculus

$$\frac{d}{dx} \int_{a}^{x} f(t) dt = f(x)$$

Chain Rule Version of 2nd Fundamental Theorem of Calculus

$$\frac{d}{dx} \int_{a}^{g(x)} f(t) dt = f(g(x)) \cdot g$$

Average value of f(x) on [a, b]

$$\frac{1}{b-a}\cdot\int_a^bf(x)dx$$

Rate In/Rate Out formula

$$\int_a^b(\text{rate of change})dt$$ = amount of change from t = a to t = b

L'Hospital's Rule conditions

If f and g are differentiable and g'(x) ≠ 0 near x = a, and $$\lim_{x \to a} f(x) = 0$$ and $$\lim_{x \to a} g(x) = 0$$ or $$\lim_{x \to a} f(x) = \pm \infty$$ and $$\lim_{x \to a} g(x) = \pm \infty$$ Then $$\lim_{x\rightarrow a}\frac{f\left(x\right)}{g\left(x\right)}=\lim_{x\rightarrow a}\frac{f$$

L'Hospital's Rule application

$$\lim_{x \to a} \frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = \lim_{x \to a} \frac{f$$
