Find the Derivative - d/dx f(x)=x

Problem

d()/d(x)*x

Solution

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

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

3. Substitute n=1 into the power rule formula.

4. Simplify the resulting expression 1⋅x(1−1) which becomes 1⋅x0

5. Evaluate the zero exponent, noting that x0=1 for x≠0

Final Answer

d(x)/d(x)=1
