Math - Derivative Analysis Section - Ethan #19

Closed Sil-Ethan closed 2 years ago

Sil-Ethan commented 2 years ago

Continuing the Derivative Section: Explaining the idea of what the first and second derivatives can provide you for any given function

Here are the additions that I have done:

Added a section about how to take a derivative of a function, and how to take a second derivative
Added how you can find the critical points of any function
Understanding how to figure out what the critical points are telling you about the slope
Second derivative: talking about how to figure out concavity
Added common notation of derivatives
Four commits with me testing different applications and creating images for the VS Code tutorial

Things to continue/improve upon:

Explaining the critical point section better
Continuing on the summation section for Taylor series and how to find summation notation

I wasn't keeping it thinking I may want to add it, but I think I will just delete it now
