Differentiate powers of x in seconds! ⚡
The Power Rule says:
d/dx (xⁿ) = n·xⁿ⁻¹
Bring the exponent down as a multiplier, then subtract 1 from the exponent.
For example:
d/dx (x³) = 3x²
d/dx (x⁵) = 5x⁴
A simple shortcut that makes many derivatives much faster.
💬 Try this: What is the derivative of x⁴?
