Question

What is the meaning of derivative?

Answer 1

Dear student,
Here is the answer to your asked query:

The derivative is the instantaneous rate of change of a function with respect to one of its variables.
The derivative of f is denoted by f '(x) or $\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{dx}}\left[\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}\right)\right]$ or if y=f(x) $\Rightarrow \mathrm{f}\text{'}\left(\mathrm{x}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{dy}}{\mathrm{dx}}$
