Explore the Calculus of nth Derivatives
The sum, product and chain rules for derivatives can be generalized to the case of th derivatives, as illustrated in the following.
The th derivative of a sum is the sum of the th derivatives.
The th derivative of a product is given by the Leibniz rule.
Make a table that shows the product rule for 1, 2, 3.
The th derivative of a composition is given by the chain rule.
Make a table that shows the chain rule for 1, 2, 3.
