A Calculus 4.1 Day 1—The Chain Rule P
THE CHAIN RULE:
When we have a function within a function, we need an additional rule called the CHAIN RULE. The chain rule must be used when we have a function whose derivative is not 1 within another function such as a power, a root, or a combination of those. Here are some examples of functions within functions (composite functions)
6
5 4y x 7
57 4y x 3
57 8 2y x x
We often rewrite the function by rewriting the function using a substitution of u for the “inner” function
6
let 5 4u x
y u
5
7
let 4
7
u x
y u
5
3
let 7 8 2u x x
y u
Once we have made the substitution, we take the derivative using the chain rule. Typically, our
functions contain x and y variables, so we usually find the derivative of y with respect to x, as indy
dx .
As we have changed the variable from x to u in the above questions, we need to adapt the formula to now take the derivative of y with respect to u while taking into account that u is based on a foundation of the x variable. The chain rule will produce the following:
dy dy du
dx du dx
This means: To find the derivative of the original function y, with respect to the original
function in terms of x, you need to 1) Find the derivative of the newly rewritten function y (containing the u) with
respect to the variable u. This is the dy
du part of
dy dy du
dx du dx
2) Multiply your answer in step 1 by the derivative of the equation u with
respect to the variable x. This is the du
dx part of
dy dy du
dx du dx
3) You now need to go back and replace any remaining u values with the equation that it represents in terms of x. We will often leave this answer fairly unsimplified and it may often contain negative or rational exponents.
If we think of the situation as actual composition of functions, we have the following rule: If ( ) ( ( ))F x f g x or ( ) ( )( )F x f g x then the derivative will be '( ) '( ( )) '( )F x f g x g x

Ex #1: Find dy
dx if
3 10(2 4 3)y x x
STEP 1: Let u = Therefore our function now looks like
STEP 2: Find the derivative of each of the above boxes with respect to their proper variables:
du
dx
dy
du
STEP 3: To find the final answer, dy
dx, multiply the above two derivatives together. We usually multiply them in reverse
however and put dydu
first and du
dx second
dy
dx dy
du
du
dx =
STEP 4: Replace any value of u with the equation in . STEP 5: Simplify where appropriate. Combine like terms or expressions/ factor and reduce etc.
How can you write this rule differently?
THE CHAIN RULE: (Think back to the composition of functions: Chapter 10 of PC30)
If ( ) ( ( ))F x f g x , then '( ) '( ( )) '( )F x f g x g x .
In other words: (derivative of outside function)•(derivative of inside function)
THE POWER RULE COMBINED WITH THE CHAIN RULE:
If ( ) ( )n
F x f x , then 1
'( ) ( ) '( )n
F x n f x f x
Reminder: POWER RULE:
If ( ) nf x x ,

This is challenging as there are no x ’s
To take the derivative of a function that is defined implicitly, we take the derivative from left to right, and
wherever there is a value of y in the equation, we need to use the chain rule and multiply that term by dy
dx . We
normally use the chain rule when taking the derivative of x values but the chain rule of those terms ends up being
dx
dx which reduces to 1.

USING IMPLICIT DIFFERENTIATION when working with EQUATIONS containing a
mixture of x and y:
STEP 1: Differentiate both sides of the equation, from left to right, with respect to x.
STEP 2: Collect all the terms with dy
dx on one side of the equation
STEP 3: Factor out the dy

RECALL:
A function is one-to-one if for every x, there is one and only one y.
Every function that is one-to-one has an INVERSE FUNCTION that is one-to-one.
We denote an inverse as 𝑓−1(𝑥)
