derivative of

y = - x^{2}

- 2 x

Solution steps

\frac{d}{d x} (- x^{2})

Take the constant out:

(a \cdot f)^{'} = a \cdot f^{'}

= - \frac{d}{d x} (x^{2})

Apply the Power Rule:

\frac{d}{d x} (x^{a}) = a \cdot x^{a - 1}

= - 2 x^{2 - 1}

Simplify

= - 2 x

\int cosh (x) d x

\int_{0}^{x} a e^{- a x} d x

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{1}{x} - 4 x^{2})

2 x^{2} + 3, (- 2, 1)

\frac{d}{d x} (\frac{x ^{3}}{x})
