Goals for today


use the chainvale to differentiate tomposite fanitors FGA
Ex Ff x gk 5 4
The composition fight f 5 4 5 4

Order of composition matters

Many Funitions can be decomposed into an inner and an outer part

Ex e can be written as a imposition FfgFl

Consequences of the chain rule


Before we knew E ex ex but I b
I for other values of b

een tix
b E
this is a tomposite function

g ft la b x gift In lb
f x et fi fl et

E b gift f Ight In b ell


la bl b

Takeaway Ex b lait b for b o

We can use the chain rule to think about as an implicit
Funition of X
y

Ex
I end

y Intl want
II
Using inverses

ed X

take derivatives

II e I II et fix I
