Find the Derivative - d/d@VAR f(x)=x^2

Problem

d()/d(x)*x2

Solution

1. Identify the function to be differentiated, which is ƒ(x)=x2

2. Apply the power rule for derivatives, which states that d()/d(x)*xn=n*x(n−1)

3. Substitute n=2 into the power rule formula.

4. Simplify the resulting expression 2*x(2−1) to obtain 2*x1 which is 2*x

Final Answer

d(x2)/d(x)=2*x
