derivative of a constant:d/dx [c] = ___________________
0
The derivative of a constant ‘c’ with respect to ‘x’ is always zero.
Mathematically, it can be represented as:
d/dx [c] = 0
This is because the derivative of a constant is the rate at which the constant is changing with respect to ‘x’. But since the constant is not changing, the derivative is zero.
For example, if c = 5, then d/dx [5] = 0. This means that the slope or rate of change of a straight line whose y-intercept is 5, is always zero.
