Part of video series The Algebra of Finding Derivatives
Check out www.themathdude.org for more videos.
Understand clearly prime and Leibniz notation as ways of indicating the derivative of functions symbolically. Understand how the definition of the derivative with difference quotient is used to find the algebraic rule for transforming a function into its derivative. Use the definition of the derivative to find the derivative rule for the power function.
- Wolfram Alpha engine - A computation engine that can do many calculations / derivatives for you as well as look up reliable information about almost anything.
- What is the power rule for derivatives?
- What is the notation for derivative functions?
- How do you take the derivative of a linear function?
- What is Leibniz notation?
- If R(t) = 2t + 5, what does dR/dt mean?
- If R(t) = p(t)*q(t), how do you do R'(t)?
- How can you find the derivative of a function?
This lesson starts off with a basic explanation of the notation for derivatives and how the power rule works for derivatives. The notation and function definitions are all shown in this introduction to derivatives. This lesson is more of an explanation of how this works rather than showing you specific examples.
