Key Calculus Terms and definitions covered in this textbook
• Common logarithm

A logarithm with base 10.

• Elementary row operations

The following three row operations: Multiply all elements of a row by a nonzero constant; interchange two rows; and add a multiple of one row to another row

• Exponential function

A function of the form ƒ(x) = a ? bx,where ?0, b > 0 b ?1

• Frequency table (in statistics)

A table showing frequencies.

• Horizontal asymptote

The line is a horizontal asymptote of the graph of a function ƒ if lim x:- q ƒ(x) = or lim x: q ƒ(x) = b

• Inverse function

The inverse relation of a one-to-one function.

• Logistic growth function

A model of population growth: ƒ1x2 = c 1 + a # bx or ƒ1x2 = c1 + ae-kx, where a, b, c, and k are positive with b < 1. c is the limit to growth

• Magnitude of a real number

See Absolute value of a real number

• Odd-even identity

For a basic trigonometric function f, an identity relating f(x) to f(-x).

• Ordered pair

A pair of real numbers (x, y), p. 12.

• Ordinary annuity

An annuity in which deposits are made at the same time interest is posted.

• Partial fraction decomposition

See Partial fractions.

• Polar form of a complex number

See Trigonometric form of a complex number.

• Polynomial in x

An expression that can be written in the form an x n + an-1x n-1 + Á + a1x + a0, where n is a nonnegative integer, the coefficients are real numbers, and an ? 0. The degree of the polynomial is n, the leading coefficient is an, the leading term is anxn, and the constant term is a0. (The number 0 is the zero polynomial)

• Power function

A function of the form ƒ(x) = k . x a, where k and a are nonzero constants. k is the constant of variation and a is the power.

• Sequence

See Finite sequence, Infinite sequence.

• Sum of a finite geometric series
