Take the exponent and multiply it by the coefficient (or 1 if there is no coefficient) then subract 1 from the exponent. For example, the derivative of 2x^3 is 6x^2 If there is no exponent, for example, 2x the derivative is 2 because the exponent is actually 1 which produces the same coefficient and the exponent 0 meaning there is no x.
The coefficient is the number placed before a variable, or variables. As for the exponent: taking the square root of a number is the same as raising it to the power 1/2, so you can consider the exponent to be 1/2. Edit: So coefficient is ./3 and exponent is 1/2
coefficient?
Yes, -4x2 is a valid mathematical statement.
Coefficient -5. Base: x. exponent: 3. Value: depends on the value of x. or Base: (-5)1/3x, exponent: 3
