  • I LOVE YOU!!! No, seriously, as a 37 yo mom of 6 who is back into University Calculus, you are sure helping me out!! Thanks!

  • "well there's the zero over zero, it's sort of like a hunting game, can you hunt down the zero over zero that makes this indeterminate form? i think this is great fun don't you think this is fun!!!!!!"

  • these videos are life savers!!!!

  • thankyou!

  • He makes me feel like the 80's

  • Questions --> Quite simple stuff really compared to this, but...

    sqrt(x^6)

    1

    ---

    X^3

    Can you please tell me the derivative of these?

  • @Melee2Kil

    sqrt(x^6): That becomes x^3 and the derivative is therefore 3 * x^2

    Are the rest questions are just your version of the problem?

  • @GrobeNuuk Thanks alot, the other one is 1 over X^3

  • @Melee2Kil

    1/x^3 is the same as saying x^(-3)

    So like before, using the exponential rule the derivative is: -3x^-4

    Another way of writing that would be: -3 / x^4

  • @GrobeNuuk Awesome, appreciate it.

  • thanks for the upload!

  • You switched it to a plus sign?

    GENIUS!!! It fucking worked! IT FUCKING WORKED!!! WHOOOO!!!

  • This is a nice explanation of derivative using limits which is very important to know in case you can't remember all those derivative tables. I did this problem by "converting" square root to x^(1/2) and then getting the derivative from that "dumbed down" rule of multiplying the x by his exponent and then reducing the exponent by one ((1/2)-(2/2)) which gives me: (x^(-1/2))/2 which is 1 over 2 times square root of x.

  • im not sure if this works, but, if we change y = root x to y square = x,

    would it still work?

    so I would end up with delta / (x+delta) square - x square on bottom ?

  • SO NEAT!!!

    I LOVE YOU!!! MY PROFESSOR'S CHICKEN SCRATCH KILLS ME! ;D

  • lol!! im gonna have a test on derivative in a couple of hours. this freaking helped me!! even my notes arent as clear as your explanation!

  • @HiJaayD Glad our video could help!! Good luck on your test!

  • fun vid I love your work

  • Your sir are a great teacher! Thank you for uploading these videos always entertaining! and easy ( or easier) to understand. Thanks!

  • yesss!!!

  • @sjluvdance You are quick! I just uploaded it! Look for part 2, it's up now as well.
