How do I Differentiate the Exponential Function?
In this post, we apply the differentiation rules to functions involving the exponential function, f(x) = ke^{ax} , where k and a are constants, as a part of the VCE Maths Methods course under the topic Calculus and sub-part Differentiation, specifically focusing on the derivative of exponential functions.
The following video covers a range of examples of how to differentiate e.
The following videos will provide further examples, specifically looking at the derivatives of exponential functions.
