Derivatives - limit definition
www.sbcc.edu › derivatives_limit_definitionNow let’s move on to finding derivatives. Recall the definition: Limit-Definition of the Derivative: 0 ( ) ( ) ( ) lim h fx h fx f x → h + − ′ = Example: Find the derivative of fx x x( ) 4= −2. In a previous example, we found ( ) ( ) 2 4 fx h fx x h h + − = + − . So 0 0 ( ) ( ) ( ) lim lim(2 4) 2 4 h h fx h fx f x x h x → →h + − ′ = = + − = − .
