Limits

· Limit of a Constant
$\lim_{x\to c}\left(a\right)=a$

Basic Derivatives

· Derivative of the natural logarithm
$\frac{d}{dx}\left(\ln\left(x\right)\right)=\frac{1}{x}\frac{d}{dx}\left(x\right)$
· Sum Rule for Differentiation
$\frac{d}{dx}\left[f\left(x\right)+g\left(x\right)\right]=\frac{d}{dx}f\left(x\right) + \frac{d}{dx}g\left(x\right)$
· Derivative of a Constant
$\frac{d}{dx}\left(c\right)=0$
· Quotient Rule in Differentiation
$\frac{d}{dx}\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)=\frac{\frac{d}{dx}\left(a\right)b-a\frac{d}{dx}\left(b\right)}{b^2}$
· Derivative of the linear function
$\frac{d}{dx}\left(x\right)=1$

How to improve your answer:

Main Topic: Limits to Infinity

The limit of a function f(x) when x tends to infinity is the value that the function takes as the value of x grows indefinitely.
