I Differential Calculations [OPTN]-[CALC]-[d/dx] To perform differential calculations, first display the function analysis menu, and then input the values using the syntax below. *(CALC)* (d/dx) f(x)atol * fx-7400GII: (CALC) (a: point for which you want to determine the derivative, tol: tolerance) d/dx(f(x) a) d dx f(a) The differentiation for this type of calculation is defined as: f ' (a) = Alixm0-f-(-a-+-A-A-xx)----f-(-a-) In this definition, infinitesimal is replaced by a sufficiently small x, with the value in the neighborhood of f' (a) calculated as: f (a + Ax) - f (a) f' (a) ------A-x------ In order to provide the best precision possible, this unit employs central difference to perform differential calculations. Example To determine the derivative at point x = 3 for the function y = x3 + 4x2 + x - 6, with a tolerance of "tol" = 1E - 5 Input the function f(x). *(CALC)* (d/dx)T,B CTV T E * fx-7400GII: (CALC) Input point x = a for which you want to determine the derivative. B Input the tolerance value. @$ DU Using Differential Calculation in a Graph Function • Omitting the tolerance (tol) value when using the differential command inside of a graph function simplifies the calculation for drawing the graph. In such a case, precision is sacrificed for the sake of faster drawing. The tolerance value is specified, the graph is drawn with the same precision obtained when you normally perform a differential calculation. • You can also omit input of the derivative point by using the following format for the differential graph: Y2=d/dx(Y1). In this case, the value of the X variable is used as the derivative point. Differential Calculation Precautions • In the function f(x), only X can be used as a variable in expressions. Other variables (A through Z excluding X, r, Ƨ) are treated as constants, and the value currently assigned to that variable is applied during the calculation. • Input of the tolerance (tol) value and the closing parenthesis can be omitted. If you omit tolerance (tol) value, the calculator automatically uses a value for tol as 1E-10. • Specify a tolerance (tol) value of 1E-14 or greater. An error (Time Out) occurs whenever no solution that satisfies the tolerance value can be obtained. • Pressing during calculation of a differential (while the cursor is not shown on the display) interrupts the calculation. 2-24
