$\frac{1}{2}\frac{d}{dx}\left(\left(1-x\right)^3\right)$
Learn how to solve differential calculus problems step by step online. Find the derivative of ((1-x)^3)/2. The derivative of a function multiplied by a constant (\frac{1}{2}) is equal to the constant times the derivative of the function. The power rule for differentiation states that if n is a real number and f(x) = x^n, then f'(x) = nx^{n-1}. The derivative of a sum of two or more functions is the sum of the derivatives of each function. The derivative of the constant function (1) is equal to zero.
