We differentiate here to find the gradient, dy/dx, i.e. the differenitial of y in terms of x. As the right handside is purely dependant on x, this is simple. We can just multiply through by the power, i.e...

First of all, that's a great question, because knowing the difference between the 2 past tenses in Spanish is really important! Firstly, let's think about why there are 2 different tenses...

After a meal blood sugar levels will rise. In the Islets of Langerhans beta cells detect hyperglycaemia and secrete insulin, while alpha cells stop releasing glucagon.
