The **power rule** applies to all functions of the form $f(x)=x^n,x \in \mathbb{R}$, such that:

$$f´(x) = nx^{n-1}$$

$$f(x) = x^5$$

$$f´(x) = 5x^4$$

The **constant multiple rule** applies to all functions of the form $f(x) = k·g(x)$, where $k$ is any real number, such that:
|

$$f´(x) = k·g(x)$$

$$f(x) = 2x^2$$

$$f´(x) = 2·2x$$

$$f´(x) = 4x$$

The **sum rule** applies to all functions of the form $f(x) = g(x) + h(x)$, where $g(x)$ and $h(x)$ are known to be differentiable, such that:

$$f´(x) = g´(x) + h´(x)$$

$$f(x) = 2x^2 + 3x$$

$$f´(x) = 4x + 3$$
