How I do I prove the Product Rule for derivatives? All we need to do is use the definition of the derivative alongside a simple algebraic trick. First, recall the the the product #fg# of the functions #f# and #g# is defined as #(fg)(x)=f(x)g(x)# .

The product rule for derivatives states that given a function #f(x) = g(x)h(x)#, the derivative of the function is #f'(x) = g'(x)h(x) + g(x)h'(x)# The product rule is used primarily when the function for which one desires the derivative is blatantly the product of two functions, or when the function would be more easily differentiated if looked ...

2015年3月23日 · $\begingroup$ Once you become fluent with the (two-factor) product rule, it would probably help to realize (and justify to yourself) that there's a many-factor product rule: for instance, with four factors, $(fghk)^\prime = f^\prime g h k + f …

2019年8月15日 · $\begingroup$ @BLAZE if you're familiar with first derivatives, simply heed the words in my answer: you need to differentiate once and apply the product rule as needed, and take the resulting function and differentiate again. The product rule is defined for first derivatives, you unfortunately cannot skip steps when differentiating here.

2020年2月15日 · The reason of doing it in the "usual order" is that we don't have to assume the answer. We are looking for it. Of course the "trick" of subtracting and adding is not easy but it is explainable. And once we have proven the product rule, with a little help the students will be able to invent the "trick" to find the derivative of a quotient of ...

2018年5月4日 · $\begingroup$ The rule is formally the same for as for scalar valued functions, so that $$\nabla_X (x^T A x) = (\nabla_X x^T) A x + x^T \nabla_X(A x) .$$ We can then apply the product rule to the second term again.
