Derivatives of even and odd functions Recall that f is even if f(−x) = f(x), for all x in the domain of f, and f is odd if f(−x) = −f(x) for all x in the domain of f.

b. If f is a differentiable, odd function on its domain, determine whether f' is even, odd, or neither.

A general proof of the Chain Rule Let f and g be differentiable functions with h(x)=f(g(x)). For a given constant a, let u=g(a) and v=g(x), and define H (v) = <1x1 matrix>

c. Show that h′(a) = lim x→a ((H(g(x))+f′(g(a)))⋅g(x)−g(a)/x−a).

Let f(x) = x².

a. Show that f(x)−f(y) / x−y = f′(x+y²), for all x≠y.
