QuickNotes™

The quantity gives us the rate of change of with respect to changes in .
When we evaluate at a specific value, we obtain an instantaneous rate of change of with respect to .
To find the units for , take the units of over the units of .
Often, looking at the units for will help you to figure out the “real world” meaning of .
