Today, we looked at the derivative and how it relates to powers of euler's number and natural logarithms. By inductive reasoning we discovered several rules. First, that if f(x)= e^bx, then f '(x)= (e^x * f '(x)= b(x)). This makes sense as it is just a special way of writing the power rule. Second, if f(x)= ln(x), then f '(x)= 1/x.
