Prove the Quotient Rule using the Product Rule and Chain Rule

given that the chain rule is d/dx(f(g(x))) = g'(x)f'(g(x))given that the product rule is d/dx(f(x)g(x)) = f'(x)g(x) + f(x)g'(x)given that the quotient rule is d/dx(f(x)/g(x)) = (g(x)f'(x) - g'(x)f(x))/(g(...

Derive the formula for differentiation from first principles

For a curve of f(x) against x, we can take the general point (x, f(x)) on the curve. By moving horizontally along the x-axis a distance of h, we also have the point (x+h, f(x+h)) on the curve. The gradien...

A sphere has a surface area of 4m^2, radius r. Another sphere has radius 2r. Calculate the Volume of the second sphere in M^3.

The surface area of a sphere can be calculated using Area = 4 x Pi x r^2. Since we know the surface are of the first sphere is 4m^2, we can write: 4 = 4 x Pi x r^2. This simplifies to r^2 = 0.318. Taking ...
