§2.3 Techniques of Differentiation
The derivative of a product of function is not the product of separate derivative!!
Suppose we have two function f(x)=x3 and g(x)=x6
The Product Rule If the two functions f(x) and g(x)
are differentiable at x, then so is the product
P(x)=f(x)g(x) and

§2.3 The second Derivative
By differentiating this function, we get
This is a function and so it can be differentiated. Here is the notation that we’ll use for that as well as the derivative.
This is called the second derivative and is nowcalled the first derivative
Consider the following function
)(xf
Alternate Notation There is some alternate notation for higher order derivatives as well.
.
This is a function as so we can differentiate it again. This will be called the third derivative

The nth Derivative For any positive integer n, the nth derivative of a function is obtained from the function by differentiating successively n times. If the original function is y=f(x) the nth derivative is denoted by

§2.5 Marginal Analysis
假如用 П 表示厂商的利润,则 П = TR - TC 。那么利润最大化就可以用 П = TR - TC 的最大化来表示。
边际效益是经济学中的一个概念,它大体可以这样理解 :即一个市场中的经济实体为追求最大的利润,多次进行扩大生产,每一次投资所产生的效益都会与上一次投资产生的效益之间要有一个差,这个差就是边际效益。
Example: 你肚子很饿了,你只有钱可以买 5 个馒头吃。
第一个馒头的边际效益最大 , 因为你那时候最饿,最需要,你多花一点钱也愿意买; 第二个的边际效益就递减了,因为有 1 个馒头进肚了 ... 不是那么饿了。
第五个的边际效益最小,因为那个时候你几乎已经快饱了,馒头如果卖的贵的话,你一定不会买了。
每支出 1 个馒头的价钱产生的效益,也就是你感觉花钱买来的价值。从第一个向最后一个递减!这就是边际效益了。
什么时候总收益和总成本之差最大呢?答案是当边际收益等于边际成本时。
§2.5 Marginal AnalysisSuppose a business owner is operating a plant that manufactures a certain product at a known level. Sometimes the business owner will want to know how much it costs to produce one more unit of this product.
Example 1: Suppose the total cost in dollars per week by ABC Corporation for producing its best-selling product is given by Find the actual cost of producing the 101st item
The cost of producing the (x + 1)st item can be found by computing the average rate of change, that is by computing :

)100()101(
cc
Note that where x = 100 and h = 1
This will give us the actual cost of producing the next item. However, it is often inconvenient to use. For this reason, Itis usually approximated by the instantaneous rate of change of the total cost function evaluated at the specific point of interest.
20006.0)( 0 xxC 1940)100( C
So, we’ll define the marginal cost function as the derivative of the total cost function.
