Definition of Derivative
Derivatives are perfect for
examining change. It tells us how
one variable changes when
another variable changes. It is
the instantaneous rate of change
of a function with respect to one
of its variables.
The derivative of f(x) with respect to

x is the function of f’(x) and as
defined as,
Find the derivative of the following

using the definition of derivatives.

Quotient Rule
Constant Rule
The rule for differentiating constant
functions is called constant rule.
It states that the derivative of a

constant function is zero; that is,
since a constant function is a
horizontal line, the slope, or the state
of change, of a constant function is 0.
Constant Rule
We restate this rule in the following
theorem:
Let c be a constant. If f(x) = c, then
f’(x) = 0
Constant Rule
Examples:
Find the derivative of the following
constant functions using the constant
rule:
1. f(x) = 7; 𝑓 ′ ( 𝑥 ) =0
2. f(x) = 𝑓 ′ ( 𝑥 ) =0
3. f(x) =
𝑓 ′ ( 𝑥 ) =0
Power Rule
Differentiating the power functions of
the form , where n is a positive
integer is called the power rule.
The power rule states that if we let n

be a positive integer, and we have the
function then :
Power Rule
Examples:
Differentiate the following power functions
using the sum rule.

The derivative of the constant c
multiplied by a function f is the same
as the constant multiplied by the
derivative of f.
That is:
Examples:Differentiate the following functions using the
constant multiple rule.

The derivative of the sum/difference
of the function f and a function g is
the same as the sum/difference of the
derivative of f and the derivative of g.
That is:

Product Rule
The derivative of the difference of the
function f and a function g is the
same as the difference of the
derivative of f and the derivative of g.
That is:

functions using the difference rule.

Quotient Rule
The rule states that the derivative of the quotient of two
functions is the fraction having as its denominator the square
of the original denominator, and as its numerator the
denominator times the derivative of the numerator minus the
numerator times the derivative of the denominator.
Let f(x) and g(x) be two differentiable functions with g(x) 0.
