How Do You Find The Derivative Of An Algrebraic Function Using The Chain Rule?
Since the function used as an example in this article contains mathematical expressions that are difficult to accurately show in the text part of the steps below, most of the work will be shown in the images. When finding the derivative of a polynomial function, g(x), that has more than 2 terms, that quantity raised to an exponent greater than 1, we should use the Chain Rule. The Chain Rule states that you multiply the function, g(x), by the exponent, and subtract 1 from that exponent; then, multiply the result by the derivative of g(x). Please click on the image for a better understanding. The first step we should take, is to find the first part of the derivative function of the Chain Rule. We must multiply g(x) by the exponent, which for this function is 2, and subtract 1 from that exponent. Please click on the image for a better understanding. The next step we should take, is to find the derivative of g(x). Then multiply it with the previous expression in step #2. For this, we can u
