We can tell by now that these derivative rules are very often used together. We’ve seen power rule used together with both product rule and quotient rule, and we’ve seen chain rule used with power rule. In this lesson, we want to focus on using chain rule with product rule. But these chain rule/product rule problems are going to require power rule, too.
Read MoreWe know how to use power rule to take the derivative of a power function, and now we’ll learn how to use product rule to take the derivative of a product. In other words, when we’re given a function which is itself a product of functions, we use the product rule for derivatives in order to differentiate it.
Read MoreLaws of logarithms (or laws of logs) include product, quotient, and power rules for logarithms, as well as the general rule for logs (and the change of base formula we’ll cover in the next lesson), can all be used together, in any combination, in order to solve log problems.
Read MoreIf the original function is the product of three functions, then its derivative is the sum of three products. If the original function is the product of four functions, then its derivative is the sum of four products.
