Appendix notes

Back to chapter 11 notes

  • p. 363: unfortunate font choice: $\dot f$ is very ugly
  • p. 363: I forgot to mention the product and quotient rules! Product rule:
(1)
\begin{align} \frac{d(a b)}{dx} = a \frac{db}{dx} + b \frac{da}{dx} \end{align}

Quotient rule:

(2)
\begin{align} \frac{d(a/b)}{dx} = \frac{b \frac{da}{dx} - a \frac{db}{dx}}{b^2} \end{align}
  • p. 366: add recent delta-method cite from Seavy
