The derivative of a function f(x) (noted as f'(x)) is defined as: An alternate definition is: However, because of how tedious it is to use the definition of a derivative every time the derivative of a function is needed, there are shortcuts known as differentiation formulas which reduce the amount of work needed to differentiate functions. Here, we will prove that these shortcuts work.
