Find the Derivative - d/d@VAR f(x)=x^2+x-7
Problem
Solution
Identify the function to be differentiated, which is a polynomial
ƒ(x)=x2+x−7 Apply the sum rule for derivatives, which states that the derivative of a sum is the sum of the derivatives.
Apply the power rule to the first term
x2 which gives2*x Apply the power rule to the second term
x which gives1 Apply the constant rule to the third term
−7 which gives0 Combine the results of the individual derivatives to find the final expression.
