Álgebra de derivadas

Teorema Sean f , g : D ⊂ R → R dos funciones derivables en a. Entonces, se verifica:

1. f ± g es derivable en a, siendo (f ± g)0 (a) = f 0 (a) ± g 0 (a)

2. Si λ ∈ R, entonces λ · f es derivable, siendo: (λ · f )0 (a) = λ · f 0 (a)

3. f · g es derivable en a, siendo: (f · g)0 (a) = f 0 (a) · g(a) + f (a) · g 0 (a)

µ ¶0
0 f f f 0 (a) · g(a) − f (a) · g 0 (a)
4. Si g (a) 6= 0, es derivable en a, siendo: (a) =
g g (g(a))2
