Essential Rules
The Constant Multiple Rule
d d x ( c ⋅ f ( x ) ) = c ⋅ d d x f ( x ) \frac{d}{dx}(c \cdot f(x)) = c \cdot \frac{d}{dx} f(x) d x d ( c ⋅ f ( x )) = c ⋅ d x d f ( x )
The Sum Rule
d d x ( f ( x ) + g ( x ) ) = d d x f ( x ) + d d x g ( x ) \frac{d}{dx}(f(x) + g(x)) = \frac{d}{dx}f(x) + \frac{d}{dx}g(x) d x d ( f ( x ) + g ( x )) = d x d f ( x ) + d x d g ( x )
The Difference Rule
d d x ( f ( x ) − g ( x ) ) = d d x f ( x ) − d d x g ( x ) \frac{d}{dx}(f(x) - g(x)) = \frac{d}{dx}f(x) - \frac{d}{dx}g(x) d x d ( f ( x ) − g ( x )) = d x d f ( x ) − d x d g ( x )
The Product Rule
d d x ( f ( x ) ⋅ g ( x ) ) = d d x ( f ( x ) ) ⋅ g ( x ) + f ( x ) ⋅ d d x ( g ( x ) ) \frac{d}{dx}(f(x) \cdot g(x)) = \frac{d}{dx}(f(x)) \cdot g(x) + f(x) \cdot \frac{d}{dx}(g(x)) d x d ( f ( x ) ⋅ g ( x )) = d x d ( f ( x )) ⋅ g ( x ) + f ( x ) ⋅ d x d ( g ( x ))

Antiderivative and The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
If f ( x ) f(x) f ( x ) is continuous on [ a , b ] [a, b] [ a , b ] then
F ( x ) = ∫ a x f ( t ) d t F(x) = \int_{a}^{x} f(t)dt F ( x ) = ∫ a x f ( t ) d t , a ≤ x ≤ b a \leq x \leq b a ≤ x ≤ b . F ( x ) F(x) F ( x ) is continuous on [ a , b ] [a, b] [ a , b ] and differentiable on ( a , b ) (a, b) ( a , b ) .
F ′ ( x ) = f ( x ) F'(x) = f(x) F ′ ( x ) = f ( x ) , that means F ( x ) F(x) F ( x ) the antiderivative of f ( x ) f(x) f ( x )
Conclusion
The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus is one of the key theorems in Calculus hence we need to know the definition of antiderivative.
Also, I have shown you how to derivative the common model. Thank you for reading and see you soon.
