ULO 1d (Differentiation of Algebraic Functions)

This document provides an overview of differentiation rules for algebraic functions, including: 1) The derivative of a constant is zero. 2) The power rule states the derivative of a variable with a positive integer exponent is the product of the exponent and the variable raised to the integer exponent minus one. 3) Examples are provided to demonstrate applying differentiation rules to find the derivative of various algebraic functions.

 Derivative of a Constant  Power Rule
The derivative of a constant is always zero (0). The derivative of a variable with a positive integer exponent
is the product of the exponent and the variable raised to the
integer exponent minus one.

where is constant.

Example: Example:
Solve for the derivative of the function, Solve for the derivative of the function,
Differentiation Rules
 Derivative of the Sum  Derivative of the Product
The derivative of the sum of two functions is equal to the The derivative of the product of two functions is equal to
