Topic 3.6: Calculating Higher-Order Derivatives
Learning Objective: FUN-3.F
Determine higher order derivatives of a function.
Essential Knowledge: FUN-3.F.1
Differentiating f' produces the second derivative f'', provided the derivative of f' exists; repeating this process produces higher-order derivatives of f.
Essential Knowledge: FUN-3.F.2
Higher-order derivatives are represented with a variety of notations. For y = f(x), notations for the second derivative include d^2y/dx^2, f''(x), and y''. Higher-order derivatives can be denoted d^n y/dx^n or f^(n)(x).
