Beauy=5-2x
y'(u-v)=du/dx-dv/dx
y'(5-2x)=d/dx(5)-d/dx(2x)
-The derivative of 5 is 0 because it's a constant.
-The derivative of 2x is:
d/dx(cu)=c*du/dx where c is a constant.
d/dx(2x)=2*d/dx(x)
y'(5-2x)=(0)-[2*d/dx(x)]
-The derivative of x is:
d/dx(xn)=nxn-1
d/dx(x)=1*x1-1
d/dx(x)=1*x0
d/dx(x)=1*(1)
d/dx(x)=1
y'(5-2x)=-[2*(1)]
y'(5-2x)=-(2)
y'(5-2x)= -2

How do you find the derivative of y equals sin8x?
Derivative of sin x = cos x, so chain rule to derive 8x = 8 , answer is 8cos8x
Why was the calculus student confused about y equals ex and the derivative of y equals ex?
Because the derivative of e^x is e^x (the original function back again). This is the only function that has this behavior.
How do you find the equation of a tangent line to the graph of fx equals x cubed and x equals -2?
Calculate the derivative of the function.Use the derivative to calculate the slope at the specified point.Calculate the y-coordinate for the point.Use the formula for a line that has a specified slope and passes through a specified point.

What is the derivative of x divided by y?
Well, isn't that a happy little question! To find the derivative of x divided by y, you can use the quotient rule. The derivative will be (y * d/dx(x) - x * d/dx(y)) / (y^2). Just remember, there are no mistakes, just happy little accidents in math!
