{{Calculus |Differential}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is a summary of '''differentiation rules''', that is, rules for computing the [[derivative]] of a [[function (mathematics)|function]] in [[calculus]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Elementary rules of differentiation ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unless otherwise stated, all functions are functions of [[real number|real numbers ('''R''')]] that return real values; although more generally, the formulae below apply wherever they are [[well defined]]&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Calculus (5th edition)'', F. Ayres, E. Mendelson, Schaum's Outline Series, 2009, {{ISBN|978-0-07-150861-2}}.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Advanced Calculus (3rd edition)'', R. Wrede, M.R. Spiegel, Schaum's Outline Series, 2010, {{ISBN|978-0-07-162366-7}}.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; — including the case of [[complex number|complex numbers ('''C''')]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;''Complex Variables'', M.R. Spiegel, S. Lipschutz, J.J. Schiller, D. Spellman, Schaum's Outlines Series, McGraw Hill (USA), 2009, {{ISBN|978-0-07-161569-3}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Constant term rule===&lt;br /&gt;
For any value of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;c&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;c \in \mathbb{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, if &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f(x)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the constant function given by &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f(x) = c&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{df}{dx} = 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=Differentiation Rules |url=https://courseware.cemc.uwaterloo.ca/11/assignments/47/6 |website=University of Waterloo - CEMC Open Courseware |access-date=3 May 2022}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Proof====&lt;br /&gt;
Let &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;c \in \mathbb{R}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f(x) = c&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. By the definition of the derivative,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{align}&lt;br /&gt;
f'(x) &amp;amp;= \lim_{h \to 0}\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{h} \\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;= \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{(c) - (c)}{h} \\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;= \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{0}{h} \\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;= \lim_{h \to 0} 0 \\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;= 0&lt;br /&gt;
\end{align}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This shows that the derivative of any constant function is 0.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Differentiation is linear===&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|Linearity of differentiation}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For any functions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;g&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and any real numbers &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;a&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;b&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, the derivative of the function &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;h(x) = af(x) + bg(x)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with respect to &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is: &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; h'(x) = a f'(x) + b g'(x).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In [[Leibniz's notation]] this is written as:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt; \frac{d(af+bg)}{dx}  = a\frac{df}{dx} +b\frac{dg}{dx}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Special cases include:&lt;br /&gt;
* The ''constant factor rule'' &amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt;(af)' = af' &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The ''sum rule'' &amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt;(f + g)' = f' + g'&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The ''subtraction rule'' &amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt;(f - g)' = f' - g'.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The product rule===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|Product rule}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the functions ''f'' and ''g'', the derivative of the function ''h''(''x'') = ''f''(''x'') ''g''(''x'') with respect to ''x'' is&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt; h'(x) = (fg)'(x) = f'(x) g(x) + f(x) g'(x).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In Leibniz's notation this is written&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\frac{d(fg)}{dx} = \frac{df}{dx} g + f \frac{dg}{dx}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The chain rule===&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|Chain rule}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The derivative of the function &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;h(x) = f(g(x))&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt; h'(x) = f'(g(x))\cdot g'(x).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Leibniz's notation, this is written as:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\frac{d}{dx}h(x) = \left.\frac{d}{dz}f(z)\right|_{z=g(x)}\cdot \frac{d}{dx}g(x),&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
often abridged to&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\frac{dh(x)}{dx} = \frac{df(g(x))}{dg(x)} \cdot \frac{dg(x)}{dx}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Focusing on the notion of maps, and the differential being a map &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\text{D}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, this is written in a more concise way as:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt; [\text{D} (f\circ g)]_x = [\text{D} f]_{g(x)} \cdot [\text{D}g]_x\,.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The inverse function rule===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|Inverse functions and differentiation}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the function {{Mvar|f}} has an [[inverse function]] {{Mvar|g}}, meaning that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;g(f(x)) = x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f(g(y)) = y,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; then&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt;g' = \frac{1}{f'\circ g}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Leibniz notation, this is written as&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt; \frac{dx}{dy} = \frac{1}{\frac{dy}{dx}}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Power laws, polynomials, quotients, and reciprocals==&lt;br /&gt;
===The polynomial or elementary power rule===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|Power rule}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f(x) = x^r&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, for any real number &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;r \neq 0,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; then &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x) = rx^{r-1}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;r = 1,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; this becomes the special case that if &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f(x) = x,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; then &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f'(x) = 1.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Combining the power rule with the sum and constant multiple rules permits the computation of the derivative of any polynomial.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The reciprocal rule===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|Reciprocal rule}}&lt;br /&gt;
The derivative of &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;h(x)=\frac{1}{f(x)}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;for any (nonvanishing) function ''{{Mvar|f}}'' is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; h'(x) = -\frac{f'(x)}{(f(x))^2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; wherever ''{{Mvar|f}}'' is non-zero.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Leibniz's notation, this is written&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{d(1/f)}{dx} = -\frac{1}{f^2}\frac{df}{dx}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The reciprocal rule can be derived either from the quotient rule, or from the combination of power rule and chain rule.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===The quotient rule===&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|Quotient rule}}&lt;br /&gt;
If ''{{Mvar|f}}'' and ''{{Mvar|g}}'' are functions, then:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left(\frac{f}{g}\right)' = \frac{f'g - g'f}{g^2}\quad&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; wherever ''{{Mvar|g}}'' is nonzero.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This can be derived from the product rule and the reciprocal rule.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Generalized power rule===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|Power rule}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The elementary power rule generalizes considerably. The most general power rule is the '''functional power rule''': for any functions ''{{Mvar|f}}'' and ''{{Mvar|g}}'',&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(f^g)' = \left(e^{g\ln f}\right)' = f^g\left(f'{g \over f} + g'\ln f\right),\quad&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
wherever both sides are well defined.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Special cases&lt;br /&gt;
* If &amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;inline&amp;quot;&amp;gt;f(x)=x^a\!&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, then &amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;inline&amp;quot;&amp;gt;f'(x)=ax^{a-1}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;when ''{{Mvar|a}}'' is any non-zero real number and ''{{Mvar|x}}'' is positive.&lt;br /&gt;
* The reciprocal rule may be derived as the special case where &amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;inline&amp;quot;&amp;gt;g(x)=-1\!&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Derivatives of exponential and logarithmic functions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{d}{dx}\left(c^{ax}\right) = {ac^{ax} \ln c } ,\qquad c &amp;gt; 0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
the equation above is true for all {{Mvar|c}}, but the derivative for &amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;inline&amp;quot;&amp;gt;c&amp;lt;0&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; yields a complex number.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{d}{dx}\left(e^{ax}\right) = ae^{ax}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{d}{dx}\left( \log_c x\right) = {1 \over x \ln c} , \qquad c &amp;gt; 1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the equation above is also true for all ''{{Mvar|c}}'', but yields a complex number if &amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;inline&amp;quot;&amp;gt;c&amp;lt;0\!&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{d}{dx}\left( \ln x\right)  = {1 \over x} ,\qquad x &amp;gt; 0.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{d}{dx}\left( \ln |x|\right) = {1 \over x} ,\qquad x \neq 0.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{d}{dx}\left( W(x)\right) = {1 \over {x+e^{W(x)}}} ,\qquad x &amp;gt; -{1 \over e}.\qquad&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;where &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;W(x)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is the [[Lambert W function]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{d}{dx}\left( x^x \right) = x^x(1+\ln x).&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{d}{dx}\left( f(x)^{ g(x) } \right ) = g(x)f(x)^{g(x)-1} \frac{df}{dx} + f(x)^{g(x)}\ln{( f(x) )}\frac{dg}{dx}, \qquad \text{if }f(x) &amp;gt; 0, \text{ and if } \frac{df}{dx} \text{ and } \frac{dg}{dx} \text{ exist.}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{d}{dx}\left( f_{1}(x)^{f_{2}(x)^{\left ( ... \right )^{f_{n}(x)}}} \right ) = \left [\sum\limits_{k=1}^{n} \frac{\partial }{\partial x_{k}} \left( f_{1}(x_1)^{f_{2}(x_2)^{\left ( ... \right )^{f_{n}(x_n)}}} \right ) \right ] \biggr\vert_{x_1 = x_2 = ... =x_n = x}, \text{ if } f_{i&amp;lt;n}(x) &amp;gt; 0 \text{ and }&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{df_{i}}{dx} \text{ exists. }&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Logarithmic derivatives===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[logarithmic derivative]] is another way of stating the rule for differentiating the [[logarithm]] of a function (using the chain rule):&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; (\ln f)'= \frac{f'}{f} \quad&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; wherever ''{{Mvar|f}}'' is positive.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Logarithmic differentiation]] is a technique which uses logarithms and its differentiation rules to simplify certain expressions before actually applying the derivative.{{citation needed|date=October 2021}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Logarithms can be used to remove exponents, convert products into sums, and convert division into subtraction — each of which may lead to a simplified expression for taking derivatives.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

|width=50%|&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; (\sin x)' = \cos x = \frac{e^{ix} +&lt;br /&gt;
 e^{-ix}}{2} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|width=50%|&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; (\arcsin x)' = { 1 \over \sqrt{1 - x^2}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; (\cos x)' = -\sin x = \frac{e^{-ix} -&lt;br /&gt;
 e^{ix}}{2i} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; (\arccos x)' = -{1 \over \sqrt{1 - x^2}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;

|&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; (\cot x)' = -\csc^2 x = -{ 1 \over \sin^2 x} = -1 - \cot^2 x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; (\operatorname{arccot} x)' = {1 \over -1 - x^2} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; (\sec x)' = \sec{x}\tan{x} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; (\operatorname{arcsec} x)' = { 1 \over |x|\sqrt{x^2 - 1}} &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|}&lt;br /&gt;
The derivatives in the table above are for when the range of the inverse secant is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;[0,\pi]\!&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and when the range of the inverse cosecant is &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\left[-\frac{\pi}{2},\frac{\pi}{2}\right]\!&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is common to additionally define an [[Atan2|inverse tangent function with two arguments]], &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\arctan(y,x)\!&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  Its value lies in the range &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;[-\pi,\pi]\!&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and reflects the quadrant of the point &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(x,y)\!&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  For the first and fourth quadrant (i.e. &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;x &amp;gt; 0\!&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;) one has &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\arctan(y, x&amp;gt;0) = \arctan(y/x)\!&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  Its partial derivatives are&lt;br /&gt;
{| style=&amp;quot;width:100%; background:transparent; margin-left:2em;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
| width=&amp;quot;100%&amp;quot; |&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{\partial \arctan(y,x)}{\partial y} = \frac{x}{x^2 + y^2}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \frac{\partial \arctan(y,x)}{\partial x} = \frac{-y}{x^2 + y^2}.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

;[[Riemann Zeta function]]&lt;br /&gt;

==Derivatives of integrals==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|Differentiation under the integral sign}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Suppose that it is required to differentiate with respect to ''x'' the function&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;F(x)=\int_{a(x)}^{b(x)}f(x,t)\,dt,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where the functions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;f(x,t)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{\partial}{\partial x}\,f(x,t)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are both continuous in both &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;t&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;x&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; in some region of the &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;(t,x)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; plane, including &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;a(x)\leq t\leq b(x),&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;x_0\leq x\leq x_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;, and the functions &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;a(x)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;b(x)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; are both continuous and both have continuous derivatives for &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;x_0\leq x\leq x_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.  Then for &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\,x_0\leq x\leq x_1&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;math&amp;gt; F'(x) = f(x,b(x))\,b'(x) - f(x,a(x))\,a'(x) + \int_{a(x)}^{b(x)} \frac{\partial}{\partial x}\, f(x,t)\; dt\,. &amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This formula is the general form of the [[Leibniz integral rule]] and can be derived using the &lt;br /&gt;
[[fundamental theorem of calculus]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Derivatives to ''n''th order==&lt;br /&gt;
Some rules exist for computing the {{mvar|n}}-th derivative of functions, where {{mvar|n}} is a positive integer.  These include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Faà di Bruno's formula===&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|Faà di Bruno's formula}}&lt;br /&gt;
If {{mvar|f}} and {{mvar|g}} are {{mvar|n}}-times differentiable, then&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt;  \frac{d^n}{d x^n} [f(g(x))]= n! \sum_{\{k_m\}} f^{(r)}(g(x)) \prod_{m=1}^n \frac{1}{k_m!} \left(g^{(m)}(x) \right)^{k_m}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
where &amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;inline&amp;quot;&amp;gt; r = \sum_{m=1}^{n-1} k_m&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; and the set &amp;lt;math&amp;gt; \{k_m\}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; consists of all non-negative integer solutions of the Diophantine equation &amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;inline&amp;quot;&amp;gt; \sum_{m=1}^{n} m k_m = n&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===General Leibniz rule===&lt;br /&gt;
{{main|General Leibniz rule}}&lt;br /&gt;
If {{mvar|f}} and {{mvar|g}} are {{mvar|n}}-times differentiable, then&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;math display=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&amp;gt; \frac{d^n}{dx^n}[f(x)g(x)] = \sum_{k=0}^{n} \binom{n}{k} \frac{d^{n-k}}{d x^{n-k}} f(x) \frac{d^k}{d x^k} g(x)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
