Question

Doing some calculus questions...

And, what's the difference between 'Differentiate each function' and 'Determine each derivative'?

Answer 1

1. Differentiate each function.
a) \(y=x^5\)
b) \(y=x^{10}\)
..and so on

2. Determine each derivative
a) \(\large\frac{d}{dx}(x^9)\)
b) \(\large \frac{d}{dx}(x^{20})\)
...and so on

Aren't they the same? D:

Answer 2

@experimentX Help please :)

Answer 3

same type .. follow this rule. this is called power rule.
\[ \large \frac{d}{dx}(x^{n}) = n \times x^{n-1}\]

Answer 4

Alright, thanks :)

I know the power rule, but I just want to know the difference between the two questions. (So there's none, lol)

Answer 5

well ... the questions are different as the function are different
but the type of question is same.

Answer 6

Okay cool, thanks! :)
