find the derivative of y=π

OpenStudy (anonymous):

with respect to what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

probably 0 though

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

y'=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im just computing derivatives of functions

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

the derivative of a constant is zero \[y=c=cy^0\] \[y'=0\times cy^{-1}=0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what if i had y=πx?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pi

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[y=\pi x=\pi x^1\] \[y'=1\times\pi x^0=\pi\]

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[y=ax^n\]\[y'=anx^{n-1}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how about if y=e^eπx

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[y=ae^{bx}\]\[y'=abe^{bx}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is the derivative itself?
