    the derivative is the difference quotient as h approaches 0

    To find f'(x)

    You need to find what and take the limit as h approaches 0.

    If your past the point of taking difference quotients to find the derivative, then there are general rules here that you have to follow. The following you will need here is that





    Don't forget about chain rule!

Logarithmic Derivative [ 9 Answers ]

Okay, this question is confusing me. Find the first derivative of (e^x - e^-x) / (e^x + e^-x) Should I use the quotient rule? I just need a little to start on how to solve this. I do know that the derivative of e^x is e^x. Does that mean e^-x = y' = e^-x ?

Second derivative [ 5 Answers ]

Hello, I am wondering how to differentiate an equation when I have a power of x and a constant in the denominator, for example: y=a/(e^(x+b)+c), where a,b,c are any number bar zero. I could do it easily without that c there, but this has me stumpped.
