Compare calculators

Both calculators run independently — change the inputs on either side to compare results.

Concavity Calculator

Evaluates the second derivative of a cubic f(x) = ax³ + bx² + cx at a test point to determine concavity. Use it to classify intervals as concave up or concave down and locate inflection points.

Chain Rule Calculator

Compute the derivative of a composite function f(g(x)) where f(u) = c·u^n and g(x) = m·x + b, evaluated at a given x. Applies the chain rule: (d/dx)[f(g(x))] = f'(g(x)) · g'(x).
