How do I find the Derivative of a Function where the x is a number? If I was to find d/dx g(1) for example, would I first find the value of the function g(x) at x=1 and then find the derivative of that which becomes 0 because the result would probably be a constant. Or do I first find the derivative of g(x) and then plug in x=1 to calculate it?

Thanks

Given a function g(x), its derivative, if it exists, is equal to the limit

The limit is some expression that is itself a function of x. Then the derivative of g(x) at x = 1 is obtained by just plugging x = 1. In other words, find g'(x) - and this can be done with or without taking a limit - then evaluate g' (1).

Alternatively, you can directly find the derivative at a point by computing the limit

But this is essentially the same as the first method, we're just replacing x with 1.

Yet another way is to compute the limit

but this is really the same limit with h = x - 1.

You do not compute g (1) first, because as you say, that's just a constant, so its derivative is zero. But you're not concerned with the derivative of some number, you care about the derivative of a function that depends on a variable.

7! = 7×6×5×4×3×2

3! = 3× 2

as 7! is multiple of 3! because 7! contains 3! that is 3× 2 as factor

so 7! /(3! ) = 7× 6× 5× 4

= 42 × 20

= 840

its b) 840✌✌✌
