Welcome to the World of Derivatives! 🧮
Calculus is a branch of mathematics focused on limits, functions, derivatives, integrals, and infinite series. In this guide, we'll explore the basics of derivatives.
What is a Derivative?
The derivative of a function measures how the function's output changes as the input changes. It is a fundamental tool for analysing the behavior of functions.
Basic Rules of Differentiation:
- Power Rule: \( \frac{d}{dx}x^n = nx^{n-1} \)
- Product Rule: \( \frac{d}{dx}(uv) = u'v + uv' \)
- Quotient Rule: \( \frac{d}{dx}(\frac{u}{v}) = \frac{u'v - uv'}{v^2} \)
- Chain Rule: \( \frac{d}{dx}f(g(x)) = f'(g(x))g'(x) \)
