Lecture 1 Functions and Concept of
Differentiation
Objectives
Revisit functions Identify a function as a
rule Determine domain, range and limit of
function Construct the function graph Identify
function gradient Introduce the concept of
derivative Solve related problems in class

The Mathematics of Change

Real-life Examples of Functional Relations
Geometrical - relationship between the side of a
square and its area Mechanical - relationship
between space and time, i.e. the position of
a moving body at a given time Structural - relatio
nship between the load on a beam and distance
from one end Fluid - relation between the
fluid velocity and fluid pressure Financial - rela
tionship between value of investment and time.
