hi people
hey there
the derivitiive of f at a is simply, the limit as h appraoches 0 of (f(a+h)-f(a))/h if this limit exists. QED

2.71828183 ==So the derivative of a constant is zero.If you have e^x, the derivative is e^x.
2.67676364564. Multiply the power of x by the coefficient, and lower the power of x by 1, which is x to the 0 power, or 1.
The derivative of ln(x) is 1/x. Therefore, by Chain Rule, we get:[ln(10x)]' = 1/10x * 10 = 1/xUsing this method, you can also infer that the derivative of ln(Ax) where A is any constant equals 1/x.
The derivative of a constant is always 0. To show this, let's apply the definition of derivative. Recall that the definition of derivative is: f'(x) = lim h→0 (f(x + h) - f(x))/h Let f(x) = 1. Then: f'(x) = lim h→0 (1 - 1)/h = lim h→0 0/h = lim h→0 0 = 0!
