Calculus:Derivative of Polynomial Functions

Derivative of Polynomial Functions

=Newton Derivative of Polynomial Functions=

1. The sum rule $(f+g)'=f'+g'$
2. The Difference Rule $(f-g)'=f'-g'$
3. The Product Rule $(f*g)'=f*g'+g*f'$
4. The Quotient Rule $({f \over g})'={(gf'-fg') \over g^{2}}$

=Leibniz Derivative of Polynomial Functions=

1. The sum rule ${d(f+g) \over dx}={df \over dx}+{dg \over dx}$
2. The Difference Rule ${d(f-g) \over dx}={df \over dx}-{dg \over dx}$
3. The Product Rule ${d(fg) \over dx}'=f{dg \over dx}+g{df \over dx}$
4. The Quotient Rule ${d({f \over g}) \over dx}={g{df \over dx}-f{dg \over dx} \over g^{2}}$

Examples

Example 1

Ex1:$f'(x^{4}+2x^{2}+4x+2)$

Using the sum rule we can divided in to different part $f((x^{4})+2(x^{2})+4(x)+(2))$

so we will started to work on different part by using power rule.

1. $f'((x^{4})+2(x^{2})+4(x)+(2))$

1. $(4x^{3})+2(2x)+4$

1. $4x^{3}+4x+4$
