Question

Is differentiate the same as derivative?


Open in App
Solution

Determine if differentiate is the same as the derivative

The derivative of a function is the rate of change of a variabley with respect the change of some other variablex.

It is represented as: dydx.

Here, y is the dependent variable and x is the independent variable.

While differentiation is the process of finding the derivative.

So, we can say that differentiation is the operation while derivative is the result of that operation.

Hence, differentiation and derivative are not the same.
