Solve x/1*5

$$x / 1 \times 5$$

Differentiate w.r.t. x

$$5$$

Steps Using Definition of a Derivative

Anything divided by one gives itself.

$$\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}x}(x\times 5)$$

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

$$5x^{1-1}$$

Subtract 1 from 1.

$$5x^{0}$$

For any term t except 0, t^{0}=1.

$$5\times 1$$

For any term t, t\times 1=t and 1t=t.

$$5$$

Evaluate

$$5x$$
