    03 BasicDerivativeRules

    Uploaded by

    Rebeca Enrique-Cifres
    This document provides an overview of derivatives and instantaneous rates of change, along with rules and examples for calculating derivatives of various functions. It defines the derivative of a function f(x) as the instantaneous rate of change of f with respect to x. Several derivative rules are listed, such as the power rule, product rule, quotient rule, chain rule, and rules for exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric and other common functions. Examples are given to demonstrate how to apply each rule to find the derivative of a given function.
