Find the derivative of the following function. |
Make sure you understand the problem fully: What is the question asking you to do? Are there specific conditions or constraints that you should take note of? How will you know if your answer is correct from your work only? Can you rephrase the question in your own words in a way that makes sense to you? |

Please rate my easiness! It's quick and helps everyone guide their studies. If we start by simplifying the expression of the function ƒ we have: This function is not defined at 0 and for all the other value, we can divide and obtain that and so its derivative is |
