When adding or subtracting two functions and trying to find the derivative, take each derivative separately then add/subtract. Ex: d/dx ( f(x) ± g(x) ) =d/dx f(x) ± d/dx g(x) What is the Sum and Difference Rule? What is the Constant Multiple Rule? What is the Quotient Rule? What is the Constant Rule?

What is the Sum and Difference Rule?

If you have a constant in front of a variable while trying to get a derivative, multiply the exponent by constant to get a coefficient Ex: d/dx (C)= C(d/dx) f(x) What is the Power Rule? What is the Sum and Difference Rule? What is the Constant Multiple Rule? What is the Product Rule?

Move the exponent in front of variable, subtract 1 from the exponent. Ex: f'(x)= nx^ n-1

The derivative of a constant is 0. Ex: d/dx (C)= 0 (Tip: Pi and e are constants)

When adding or subtracting two functions and trying to find the derivative, take each derivative separately then add/subtract. Ex: d/dx ( f(x) ± g(x) ) =d/dx f(x) ± d/dx g(x)

If you have a constant in front of a variable while trying to get a derivative, multiply the exponent by constant to get a coefficient Ex: d/dx (C)= C(d/dx) f(x)

When trying to find the derivative and there are two functions multiplied together, use this equation: f'(x)g(x) + f(x)g'(x)

When there is division (numerator f(x), denominator g(x) ) of one function over another, use this equation: f"(x)g(x)-f(x)g'(x)/ (g(x))2
