HIGHER ORDER DERIVATIVES Product & Quotient Rule

The Product Rule Theorem. Let f and g be differentiable functions. Then the derivative of the product fg is (fg) '(x) = f(x) g '(x) + g(x) f '(x) In other words, first times the derivative of the second plus second times the derivative of the first.

Quotient Rule Theorem. Let f and g be differentiable functions. Then the derivative of the quotient f/g is In other words, low d high minus high d low over low low.
