Topics in Insurance and Annuity

1

Application to Tangents and Normals

  • Slope of tangent at point (x₁, y₁) is dy/dx|(x₁,y₁)
  • Slope of normal is -1/(dy/dx) if dy/dx ≠ 0
  • Equation of tangent: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
2

Rate Measure (Related Rates)

  • Rate of change of one quantity with respect to another
  • Chain rule is essential: dy/dt = (dy/dx) × (dx/dt)
  • Identify given rates and required rates clearly
3

Approximations using Differentials

  • Linear approximation formula: f(a+h) ≈ f(a) + hf'(a)
  • Used for calculating approximate values of complex expressions
  • h should be small for better accuracy
4

Rolle's Theorem and Lagrange's Mean Value Theorem

  • Rolle's Theorem: If f is continuous on [a,b], differentiable on (a,b), and f(a) = f(b), then ∃c ∈ (a,b) such that f'(c) = 0
  • LMVT: If f is continuous on [a,b] and differentiable on (a,b), then ∃c ∈ (a,b) such that f'(c) = [f(b)-f(a)]/(b-a)
  • Both theorems guarantee existence of a point, not uniqueness
