Section B.1 Differentiation Formulas

List B.1.1. Derivative Rules

$\frac{d}{d x} (c x) = c$
$\frac{d}{d x} (u \pm v) = u^{'} \pm v^{'}$
$\frac{d}{d x} (u \cdot v) = u v^{'} + u^{'} v$
$\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{u}{v}) = \frac{v u^{'} - u v^{'}}{v^{2}}$
$\frac{d}{d x} (u (v)) = u^{'} (v) v^{'}$
$\frac{d}{d x} (c) = 0$
$\frac{d}{d x} (x) = 1$
