Take the exponent and multiply it by the coefficient (or 1 if there is no coefficient) then subract 1 from the exponent.For example, the derivative of 2x^3 is 6x^2If there is no exponent, for...
The derivative of a function is another function that represents the slope of the function at each of the points in the original function's domain. For instance, given the function f(x) = x2, the...
A derivative is the rate of change of a function with respect to an independent variable (usually time or just x). For example, the derivative of a position-versus-time graph (with the independent...
