Outline the various ways that you can differentiate a function

The ways to differentiate a function depend on the function itself. If there is only one x value in the function you can differentiate as normal (hard to explain on a computer), yet if the function contains more than one x value is a separate place, you will need to use another approach such as the chain, product or quotient rule

let p be a polynomial p(x) = x^3+bx^2+ cx+24, where b and c are integers. Find a relation between b and c knowing that (x+2) divides p(x).

Where does the quadratic formulae come from?

The equation (t – 1)x^2 + 4x + (t – 5) = 0, where t is a constant has no real roots. Show that t satisfies t2–6t+1>0

I don't understand how to visualise differentiation, please could you show my an example to allow me to understand what it actually is better?
