$\frac{d}{dx}\left(x^2\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(-4\right)$
Learn how to solve differential calculus problems step by step online. Find the derivative of x^2-4. 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 (-4) is equal to zero. The power rule for differentiation states that if n is a real number and f(x) = x^n, then f'(x) = nx^{n-1}. Subtract the values 2 and -1.
