Solve a^2div(-10)^0

$$a ^ { 2 } \div ( - 10 ) ^ { 0 }$$

Evaluate

$$a^{2}$$

Solution Steps

Calculate -10 to the power of 0 and get 1.

$$\frac{a^{2}}{1}$$

Anything divided by one gives itself.

$$a^{2}$$

Differentiate w.r.t. a

$$2a$$

Steps Using Definition of a Derivative

Calculate -10 to the power of 0 and get 1.

$$\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}a}(\frac{a^{2}}{1})$$

Anything divided by one gives itself.

$$\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}a}(a^{2})$$

The derivative of ax^{n} is nax^{n-1}.

$$2a^{2-1}$$

Subtract 1 from 2.

$$2a^{1}$$

For any term t, t^{1}=t.

$$2a$$
