Part 2/5:
Here, the slope at a specific point on a graph can be visualized as the rate of change of ( y ) with respect to ( x ).
Notations of Derivatives
Mathematicians have developed various notations to express derivatives. Some common ones include:
f’(x) or f prime of x
dy/dx (the derivative of ( y ) with respect to ( x ))
d f/dx
d/dx (f(x))
d x f(x)
These notations help convey the process of differentiation and the concept of infinitesimally small changes.
